Default Insane smoke.

When the trucks are spooling up at the line why do some 7.3s take so long to spool? They just pour smoke out how do i acheive that?? You cant run twins can you??

With stock injectors your not going to gain or get anything useful... Any turbo you are talking about will require a T-4 mounting kit, be it a H2e, S-300, S-400 or a GT series Garrett.

The reason they smoke is lots of fuel, lots of load (brakes) to build boost before leaving the line.
