how much smoke is a bad thing?
I just put in some + 50hp injectors from pensacola diesel and now I blow thick black smoke at anything more than 1/4 throttle. also when I get to 70mph, and start to get past 2000rpm, it starts to cut out like it not getting fuel or something. I have a new vp44, and an airdog 100 with clean filters and a dummy light that comes on at under 10 psi(its the only pressure switch I could find that was close to what I needed). Also, I was really hoping that my new injectors would get me past that 12.8 mpg that I have been getting since even before the ip was changed. Any suggestions?

injectors
PD injectors are by far the cheapest you can find. most of the ebay sellers just replace the nozzles on them and have very poor flow and can really mess with your truck and mind. i live up in PA and had a set of 100 horse injectors made at Wimer's Diesel. they bosch marine injectors that have had some lift cut on em. with my tst comp box off it barely smokes even when gettin on it. if you are looking for a good set i would try them guys out

turns out there was nothing wrong with injectors... Put a boost gauge on her, and could only pump about 5psi
got to looking, and realized that I forgot to tighten the clamp on the rubber air tube on the high ram. hooked her up and now she screams. clear exhaust and 20+ mpg.

Might not be a bad idea to check the whole system:
