turning it towards the motor throws more fuel therefore you get more smoke , more power , and less mpgs !! but all in all i would do it. i did it and it was nice...

actually when you have unburnt diesel you know that you have enough fuel to support your motors full power potential.

that just means you need more air, pullers have the massive clouds to support the huge turbos but smoke in a street truck means you need more tuning and air.
