Hi all,

Yesterday traveling to town, the truck was running fine and I needed to pass a slow moving truck/trailer. I used about 1/2 go pedal, and approached 28 lbs of boost when I noticed a lot of brown smoke bellowing from the 4" exhaust. The best way to describe it was when you push the go pedal on a gasser to the floor, and blow a ton of rusty soot from the steel exhaust system.

I've got a aluminized 4" straight pipe from the turbo back, and I don't see anything leaking or not working correctly.

Any feedback would be appreciated, we leave here with the 5th wheel in a couple of weeks for Quartzsite so I want to avoid any problems.



Thanks,

DC Miller
