Will it do this even at operating temp? Is the truck noticibly less noisy at idle on the street tune? Could be that the street tune has a bit less timing at idle then the extream street.
My tow tune has a good blue haze at idle when cold, and is less noisy then my higher power tunes. Timing has alot to do with it. I wouldn,t worry about it unless its doing this at operating temp.

I have blue smoke when the truck is cold. When its hot and I stand on it, I have some black smoke.

No EGR cooler here!


A touch of Blue when you 1st start it is normal until you get some heat!
