it would be much easier to tune it, you can do it sitting on your butt and press a few buttons a boom more smoke.

swapping injectors isnt too bad on a lbz though... compared to a lb7

Put a rag in the airbox infront of the air filter.. that'll give you more black smoke.. or unhook one of the IC boots..

Black smoke is not cool.. It just means you are injecting more fuel than your turbo can light. It wont make you any faster.


There are alot of small things you can do to an LBZ that will increase the lifespan of the truck, and make it perform better. They dont smoke much even with a BIG tune.. Its not a cummins bud.


Check these Links for helpful threads on what you can do to an LBZ without tuning it.

Along with a good free flowing exhaust, your truck will run great.

you can put injectors but they aint cheap. and even then it wont smoke alot unless you get at least 50% overs.

Whats that?

Again bud, the cummins injectors are measured in HP.. With the Duramax, its what % over stock they are.. 50% over injectors would be like 225 HP .. and it still wont smoke much.. not without some tuning..

Where are you located in Arkansas? I can recommend a shop to have your stock nozzles extrude-honed. But without some way to program more fuel you are wasting your time and money IMO.

No need to touch the motor just to make smoke. For less than half the money (and a lot less time/hassle) than it would cost to do injectors, you could buy EFILive and flash in a smoke tune that will make waste all the fuel you want. Then re-load your stock tune. It is tuning software - nothing to mount in the truck.
