You will need a chip. Thats the only right way to get more fuel dumped into the cylinders.

Try the 10k mod.....
10k resistor mod.

Its really not as hard as it seems, and it only costs about $2.00...

The only way to really blow more smoke is to get yourself a chip, or a programmer, but that also requires gauges, so in total for that your looking at at least $700....

first of all, what year truck/motor do you have? like everyone else said, you need a chip or tuner. you can probably pick up a cheap one on the forum from one of the members.
