Default fuel pin

Have a 1993 dodge with 97 turbo, larger injectors,3 inch exhaust, pump turn up,boost and exhaust temp gauge ,few other mods. Thinking about going with a stage 2 fuel pin, But dont want excessive black smoke, any input out there on how much smoke or how soon it may clear under wide open throttle, or no black smoke at all.. if i adjust star wheel inside pump. Also think i should go with a 3200 gov spring?? any input would be great . thanks

Any time you add fuel and not more air you're gonna see more soot. There's really no way around that unless you're matching air with fuel exactly. Running compound turbos will help with the smoke because it'll introduce more air with faster spool, and more air at high rpm but that's really about it other than just saying keep your foot out of it. Good luck man!

i have a denny T pin and the smoke is very controlable, although if you lug it and put the pedal to the floor it does smoke pretty good.

I appreciate the offer , but mine is in, shall we say, EXTENDED overhaul! As time and money allows. I should change that status, shouldn't I...

I don't know how it works on this site, but your post might be breaking a rule or two about posting wanted/for sale stuff in the general forum. Have you tried listing it there?
