6.0 PSD turbo issues?

I'm hearing a new sound from my 6.0 PSD when it downshifts, or I step on the gas to get to highway speed. It sounds like a loud rushing noise coming from the passenger side of the doghouse. Am I in for the dreaded turbo failure on my 6.0 PSD? I've also noticed a loss of power when this occurs. In my forum search about this problem, I saw mention of a high pressure line failure. Could this be it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check all the flex coupling going to/from the intercooler. They blow off sometimes.

Re: 6.0 PSD turbo issues?

I can almost guarantee you that you have a loose or blown CAC hose. Large blue hoses. Usually an easy fix.

Same thing happened to me years back on my 06. Think Ford had an upgrade clamp or hose.
