go figure..

Yesssssss!!!! Very same thing that you are experiencing.
Mine feels very sluggish. I find that I really have to step on the gas more. Feels like lots of turbo lag now. And I actually backed it up at the track. Previously truck was running 12.6's and 12.7's in the quarter mile. Now the best I could do were 13.1's and 13.4's, and that is beating it like a rented mule.

When I took it to the dealer they found a 'Low Boost' code but nothing else, gave it back and it still sucks, definitely low on power.

BTW, mine started feeling slow about 10,000km have 12,000km on it now.


I am going to take it back to the track in the spring, if my 1/4 mile times are still way off I am going to trade the M in.
