88 Turbobird just diedish. Out of nowhere it wouldn't rev above 2k or under boost and it sounds like all of the boost is being dumped (hissing) being a diesel guy I have had this problem on navstar motors and it would usually be a bypass valve being stuck. I haven't been able to trace any obvious boost leaks yet (cracked lines etc,..) and it dumps a sh*&load of fuel while this is happening. Runs great off idle tho lol. Anybody else ever have a similar problem?

What bypass valve do you have on it? They don't have one from the factory. Boost leak maybe?
