Smoke (or lack of)

[Coop]

My truck is mainly stock, except for the Psychotty air. I often see guys commenting on how much their truck smokes, but I rarely see even a haze come from my exhaust. The only time I see that is WOT. Should it smoke some, or only after some mods? I intend on getting a whole new 4" exhaust, downpipe, and ATS manifold later this year.

Coop, until you give it more fuel it ain't going to smoke much... ... Pete

You won't see smoke, you got alot of "air" mods on or planned, but no addtional fuel. To make power with a diesel have to add air + fuel = power. So you won't be seeing any smoke until addtional fuel is added. The only "bonus" really to adding more air, and cooler air is lower EGT's therefore allowing you to add more fuel #ad

Thanx guys. I go for more fuel when I get the DTT TC&VB and get the 4" exhaust. Only got enough money for a little at a time, though. #ad

Coop:

I have some "extra smoke" if you need
some and Pete Peterson will testify to
that!

Take care!
