smoke switch is a switch you tap into your map sensor. i tried it and no smoke, no power, and check engine light so i would say dont try it IMO.

there are some good wrtieups on how to do them...the way you do it though depends totally on what type of chip/box you are running...they will throw a code if you leave it on for awhile but short shots of it usually dont...
