Default What next ?

I know the CLUTCH is probably next up since it has started to slip in 4th :')

but, as for power mods.... currently i've got:

3" free-flowing exhaust, OEM intake, grinded to a #100 and plugged the wastegate (not me who did it, i bought the truck like this).

What should i do next ?? does tuning the AFC do anything since my wastegate is plugged ?

and will it light quicker with cranking the star-wheel ?

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

oh yeah, i forgot to mention.... i barely get any smoke ? wouldn't grinding it to a #100 make more smoke ?

oh and.... advice:

"#100 plate doesn't like Kerosene...."

make sure the line from the intake to the afc is sealed and you need to loosten the star wheel a bit to get the smoke. the afc controls the air fuel ratio so your not getting fuel till there is pressure in the intake that is why it doesnt smoke.
