    Now that is sensory over load, even if not info we can use...

    Have you checked the fuel and air supplies, filters, turbo, intercooler??

    I was losing power on my '12 Cascadia and then my check/stop and fault lights came on, it ended being a Nitrous Oxide Sensor went bad.

    So it could be something really big or something really small.
