Im just gonna throw this out there. You are gonna get some mean replies since you asked for smoke. Most the guys on here dont like smoke and only give ppl crap about it. I mean almost everyone has smoke but its not a good thing for the diesel enthusiast market to support.

But if I remember correct Tony Wildman or swamp tunes are best for the 7.3.

I'll fall on the sword, I asked swamps when I got my single shots and chip about smoke and the guy gave me an ear full and basically said NO, NO SMOKE TUNES, put it in extreme and mash the throttle and you'll blow a massive soot cloud (which it does).

Smoke is basically created by dumping in too much - lots of fuel at low boost. I do know PHP will make a safe smoke tune, maybe tony does too, but it doesn't provide any performance, just looks. Bonus is with either Tony or PHP the other 5 slots will have top notch performance tunes.

I prefer any tuner using a TS style blank, that would be Power Hungry Performance, Swamps, Beans, Diesel Innovations, BTS, TS, Tony Wildman...

Stick with a TS chip and you can pick tunes from anyone under the sun...
