Yeah build your truck properly for horsepower and smoke will come. Noone in the diesel world likes guys coming around asking for just massive smoke blowing.

this is just a personal opinion but if you are planning on dumping more fuel make sure you have a good lift pump to feed fuel to the vp44. i would get a fass or air dog system before the injectors unless you already have one. if not you can run the vp dry and possibly kill it. which means lots of money spent. and also you do not want to go to crazy on the injectors if you are still running a stock turbo. i personally wouldnt go over 75hp injectors on a stock turbo unless you are planning on upgrading the turbo in the near future.

If you're referring to an African American it's "******"

Here is what I got...

* Edge Comp
* RV275's
* AirDog 150

I've got enough power I can outright smoke 2nd gear and bark 3rd gear and do it completely smokeless (well just a slight small puff). I can careless for the smoke but I'd rather have the clean power and sleeper appearance. What's even more funny I still spin the tire even hitched up to the RV.

I don't care completely about smoke I just want lots of power and the most I can get out of sticks I staid of upgrading my turbo and lift bump atm so probilaly the highest I should put in is 100 hp sticks and as long as I watch my egts it should be okay right? I know smoke comes with power and I'm not all just for smoke but it would be nice to **** up tailgaters as I punch it when I want to, thanks for the replays appreciate it guys.

bigger than 75HP and you will surely slip the clutch or converter. Do you have a lift pump upgrade?
