new air filter , new fuel filter , no water in fuel
no smoke , no fault codes
i ear the turbo boosting at low rpm but dont know the pressure that he is boosting
so if someone can help me that would be appreciated

I don't recall if this throws a code, but if the truck goes over 20psi boost, the ecm will de fuel the engine due to this over boost condition. That = one dog of a truck. I fixed this problem by putting in a Catcher program in the ecm. That over rides the defueling thing alltogether. now at 33psi boost, she flys!

Uh.. neat fix. But, HOW can a "Catcher program" be programed into the ecm??
