Default tune up

hey i just put a new turbo the aurora 3000 turbo on my truck with 90 hp injectors and an after market straight pipe exhaust. I have a few questions regarding if the truck should be tuned with those mods. Also why would even if i start my truck on a hot or cold day and the heaters are working would it wont to not go any were and blow white smoke. It's almost as if the engine is not getting enough fuel or something because once i start driving it, it runs great. It also has an automatic rebuilt trans in it but its not slipping or anything. I just want to be able to start the truck and go.

did you adjust the pump after you installed the turbo & injectors? Check to make sure there are no leak on the intake side, might be losing air from turbo to intake.

if you added a turbo, and 90 hp sticks and did not adjust you injection pump, you will have some issues.

When I put my injectors they re-adjusted the pump according to the injectors installed and also got the timing advanced 16*. Night and day difference. if you didn't get your pump adjusted, I would get it done to avoid issues. fuel delivery from stock injectors and 90 hp injectors is not the same, and to throw in the fact that you now have more cfm's in by your new turbo. I would get it adjusted by someone a knows what their doing.

then it will be nice & reliable, no worries.
