this is a newbe question???
so i have a 05 powerstroke.... so what makes the race and non race trucks smoke before takeoff???Is it a restrictor plate or valve opening or what...does it hurt the engine or milage ???just wondering im new at this diesel thing...thanks
|
its the turbo spooling up, when you romp on it right at first there is nothing to burn the fuel cause these engines soul of power is the turbocharger, no boost= no power
|
Its caused by adding more fuel. Tuning, injectors,etc... Its unburnt fuel since the turbo hasnt spooled yet.
|
ok so any of these trucks can do it??
|
Oh yeah these trucks can do it especially with a Edge Juice or a SCT. My Edge smoked more than my SCT does but in the end I would rather have less smoke and the power of the SCT.
Just remember, until you reach the point where you have to be overfueled to make big power, smoke=wasted fuel and it sure doesn't equal more power |
thank for the info.....sct is on its way.....
|
call elite, or innovative, or one of your choice for some custom tunes :tu:
