My boost is normal again
My max boost has dropped from 40+ psi without a tune back down to 32 psi. Will the turbo vanes free thenselves up with use?
Last week, after letting my truck sit for a week, the boost was pushing 50 psi with a tune 40 psi without a tune, after driving for a week all is normal.
I guess I will see what happens the next time I go on call.

They do suggest that you don't baby the VGT turbo's as doing so causes them to gum up and stick.....Get on it and keep it cleaned out

I do get on it, but my truck sits for one week out of the month since I run the company truck when I am on call.
The last time I got off call is when I started having problems with boost

They will gum up when they sit. I always noticed that the truck seems faster when I haven't driven it in a while. It's going to feel REAL fast after driving this POS Dodge Charger rental car for a week!
