I have just ordered stage 3 injectors (100 hp). I don't have a boost module. Has anyone used these and was there alot of smoke without the boost fooler?
 
A boost module is only needed if you disable the wastegate. However, I would think that you will have EGT probs if you don't disable the WG and install a boost module. As for smoke... . I hardly notice any smoke if the box is off. BTW, I have a auto.
 
I believe that you are going to find that you need to get a boost module. Even if you leave the waste gate alone, the stage 3's will drive the turbo hard enough to set a trouble code and cause the ECM to defuel. With my DD'3s in the truck and the wastegate left stock, i could hit 26-27 psi boost. Plus, you are going to want the higher boost with the stage 3's to help keep egt's in check, im sure you can find a used boost module from someone here for a very reasonable price. As far as smoke, i dont think its too bad, but then again "too much smoke" is a relative thing. If i jump on it with no boost, i can occlude 2 lanes of traffic, if i drive smart not a problem at all. Now when you get up to the high altitudes, my truck is kind of a pig. (at least thats what my wife says:rolleyes: )
