Wastegate

I have studs and a SCT, and have been running eric's extreme tune. My co-worker noticed as I punched it leaving the office that some smoke came out under the engine compartment. Could this be from the wastegate?

Ok, i am a r-tard. no wastegate on 6 oh. I think it is the flex pipe running from manifold to turbo.

yes more than likely that is where its commin from... unless you have a spot rotted out on your exhaust somewhere...

Exhaust is near new. gonna take it to a guy I know that is a diesel tech at ford and let him fix her. I don't want to take it apart.

just free rev it when its park and you should be able to see. get someone with a flash light and sit under the truck or be on top of the motor looking.
