Ok, so I have a 2010 F350 tuned by Spartan. Done the DPF delete but still have the EGR system installed due to emissions testing so I have to put it back to stock for test. We recently moved to Colorado from Texas and as soon as we got into Colorado Springs I started noticing extreme turbo lag on take off and excessive smoking and yes it was like 18 degrees but the issue has continued even on 70 degree days. When I start from a dead stop, it barely makes any boost until it hit 20-30 mph and the only time I can get it above 30 psi is when the torque converter locks up and it will surge above 30 then fall back down to 15 or lower. Finally got the P2263 code and CEL and thought I was lucky when I found that normally this is caused by a bad EBP sensor. I have changed the EBP sensor and tube and inspected the turbos and actuator and all looks fine but I did not pull the turbos out, just checked for play. I searched the forums and it seems that everyone else that is getting this code due to high boost pressures, not the lack of boost that I am having with excess smoke. I also do not hear any exhaust changes or see any cracks in any of my pipes. I ran the 275 tune in Texas for over 2 years without any issues and at a loss now for what could be causing these issues.

I was thinking the altitude could have something to do with the tune but it acts the same way on the 210 TP and the 275, but after talking with Spartan today, they really don't think that would have anything to do with it.

Are you asking what my readings are for EBP? If so, I didn't look them up before I tore the truck down to look at the turbos and haven't been able to get it back together yet due to the weather here in CO.

I am going to try to get everything put back together tomorrow and I will look and see what these numbers are. Thanks everyone for the help!
