Hey man welcome to the org! First off get a Set of Gauges ,Boost,Pryo,and Trans. Check with wally @ FTE Diesel he is the man. Then Just get an SCT with some custom tunes screw the smoke Switch

Its only cool to smoke people out or blow lots of smoke, which ever you want to do, IF you can back it up... Just get the SCT and then if it doesn't smoke enough for your liking try a smoke switch.

thanks were can i get the sct and what is it. he is the man to talk to about stacks? i dont want to just dump balck smoke ever were but some would be nice i just want to be able to smoke out tunners when the time come then go back to just power. the pple i have talked to hear have all the gages but dont kno what they need to read... the only thing i know is we had a Pryo gauge in my work truck. and i the guy we bought it from sad not to get it over 1300...

the smoke switch will not work with a stock truck. all the smoke switches do is break the circuit to the vgt solenoid causing loss of boost resulting in black smoke. the stock pcm program will register the loss of boost and cut back fuel to compensate.

forddieseldoctor is right. I tried it (unplugged vgt) with stock tuning and got nothing.... Get an SCT with Innovative's X-Street and you will get all the smoke you want. Just have fun with while being responsible. Please.

If you ask around on here everyone is gonna tell you to go with sct. Call eric at innovative diesel he is very knowledgeable. This is the thread that i started about this awhile ago: 6.0 programmers

Also, the CUSTOM tunes (SCT) (the ONLY ones I would run) are not available in shift on the fly like the 7.3 and the Banks chips have. However, with X-Street, I get the best mpg (as long as you stay out of it mostly) but then drop the hammer and you're GONE!
