Default Ts performance, not exactly what I imagined..

I bought it to get better Milage on the highway, it's been good so far, in the 140 hp extreme setting I'm not impressed. Little smoke, where can I send this chip to to get reburnt with out costing a small fortune? With out doing injectors, I want smoke

YOU WON'T GET SMOKE WITH STOCK INJECTORS...

Send the chip wherever you want. It won't matter...

You will get about 60hp out of a chip on stock injectors...

As he said. In an OBS the injectors don't give alot of fuel (90cc) in the stock form. The most you may get is a dark haze. Put some Stage I squirters in there and your truck will seem like it woke from the dead. Plus highway performance will remain the same...just have more ***** when needed. Jim at Rosewood Diesel does great for a low price, many companies carry Casserly from Full Force(that's who I use), Swamp's, and many others.

My uncles 97 7.3 will puff a little smoke on the 140hp setting. It doesn't even smoke that much when he lugs it in 5th gear.

90cc's of fuel will not smoke, I'm sorry guys... You might see a cute little baby puff. But not anything worth getting all giddy over..

Superduty? So he has 140cc split shots... 50% more fuel than the OP's OBS truck..
