Default Spraying diesel into exhaust??

My boss used to have a duramax and he said he bought a system that ran a fuel line to his exhaust. And hed hit a button in his cab and it would dump raw diesel into the pipe and nothin but black smoke would pour out of the pipes. Any idea where i could get somethin like this?? i asked him before but he forgot.

Would runnin' a T from one of your fuel lines, back to the exhaust work or would that mess up your fuel pressure?

Run it off the pressure line coming off the CP3......23000psi isn't all that strong.

Seriously. There is no 'kit' that I know of, for liability reasons. Making your own can be as easy as a windshield washer pump and tank, a fuel line and some fittings. But I'm just guessing here.

I don't see it being hot enough in the down pipe to ignite the fuel. But I was wrong once before or twice
