Save your money and do it right! On a vp pump truck there's no way to add smoke for free. Enjoy the truck for what it is and it'll be worth the wait!

What about a Max Milage chip Like Edge/Quadzilla can I run a switch off that?

If your wanting to get black smoke the best way to go is injectors. If your truck is stock I would only recommend 50hp injectors but if you rob the fuel you will put out a very nice cloud of smoke. Chips help but wont help as much as injectors. And with the injectors you will see an increase in mpg

A chip like you mentioned that's designed for milage will not produce smoke. Since smoke is wasted fuel...

smoke is retarded to just want, if you can't afford a programmer or injectors how can you afford to waste fuel blowing it out of your exhaust?

the cheapest way to ad smoke is to get injector nozzle's. but.... with the v.p trucks you cant starve the injection pump for to long or your gonna be out alot of money you could have spent on a fuel system and a chip. therfore you gotta do a fuel system. (money). i had the same ideas rolling in my head when i got my first diesel. its not worth it to do it cheap. take your time and do it right itl pay off in the longrun.
