Angry No Smoke?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i don't know what is going on. my truck is a 96 3500 auto with a homemade 100 plate full forward, afc full forward, starwheel at stock position, and the wastegate is plugged. but i have no smoke. full throttle i get a very faint puff. but thats it. i thought with a 100 plate full forward and the starwheel all the way back i should have a cloud of smoke. i checked each of my injectors and they are fine. i don't think i have enough fuel pressure or something. the truck also feels the same as when i had the stock plate slide forward. i don't even feel a difference with the 100 plate. this is really bugging me! help me please! thanks

Check your fuel filter.

Fuel filter first

Is it a stock trans? The trans could be slipping enough to not load the engine. At idle stab the throttle a bit and look for smoke.
