Holy run on sentence ! Try some capitalization and punctuation, it would make it easier for someone trying to help to actually stick at it....

With your AE, when the truck is doing this-foot to the floor, post up the following data:
-Fuel pressure
-ICP voltage
-VGT duty cycle
-IPR %
-FICM logic power
-FICM voltage

Is the truck stock? Or any mods done to it?

Air filter good?
