need help

My truck has a check engine light on and will start, but runs very rough. It will not run past about 1800 RPM and will not create any turbo boost. I will be pulling the codes tonight and will post when i get them...any ideas?

I'm not by any means an expert, but it sounds like you're in "limp home" mode, but you don't have the wrench displayed on your dash. Could be something wrong with your DPF, or maybe your EGR valve? Just educated guesses, but if you don't have the wrench icon lit, then maybe someone else can narrow it down a bit more.
