Need 6.7 turbo plug info QUICK!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys, I need some info ASAP. My dad's '07.5 has had turbo troubles since early summer. We took it to the dealership in July before harvest, and they drilled the hole in the housing, sprayed the cleaning solution in, etc. etc. That fix lasted for 30 miles exactly, and the MIL light was on first thing next morning. Pickup does some idling, but we've tried the 'driving hard' trick among other things with no help at all. A neighbor has an identical pickup. It has been to the dealership NINE times, thats right NINE times. Turbo was cleaned twice, and then REPLACED twice! He is now getting a new pickup under the Lemon Law. The dealership says Cummins has no fix as of yet, and they have no new turbo's to install. Dad's pickup is currently 3rd on the list for a replacement. I spent alot of energy convincing dad to get a Dodge/Cummins, because my '02 has been a good rig. Makes me look pretty dumb now, and he's not very happy at all. Any info GREATLY appreciated!

P.S.-Rig has 15,000 miles on it.
