    What year is your truck

    Black smoke is unburned fuel usually

    This would get more appropriate attention in the garage section.

    Popped intake pipe would be my first guess. Pretty easy to spot. Either that or the hood rubbed a hole in a rubber intake boot.

    More then likely a boot popped though or the clamp broke or wasn't tight enough and the pipe blew off

    Would this cause high egt also? With an electronic engine dumping more fuel in but not seeing the return in boost pressure in order to try to maintain rated power?
