Ok here is the deal, I drive my truck around in the low setting, because I'm sick of seeing a cloud everytime I feed it the juice. I know the smoke/power issue can be a double edge sword sometimes, but here is my question.
My black truck has 160cc/stock nozzle injectors, stock turbo, HV/HF IDM, Efuel, adrenaline HPOP, tymar intake and 5" exhaust. A few other things but they don't play a role in this. Tuning is PHP canned tunes I got through rosewood diesel. All of these mods were done years ago, like 08-09. I would really like to run in my higher settings, but I'd like less of a cloud.The 140hp setting is my highest, and the truck runs great, and actually cleans up good. I'd like less smoke on the low end though. The 60hp setting is my lowest, which is where i keep it normally, and it never smokes, but the performance is blah
I have discussed and debated the d66 or similar, on here even, but I've not found enough reason to yank my stocker which is doing fine. It will happen one day, but its not even something on my mind currently.
I've been wanting to get a reburn from someone else, but just haven't gotten around to it. Does anyone have any good suggestions for tuning, or a setup that burns a little cleaner? The power levels in my chip are 60, 100 and 140. 100 is ok, but I like it on 60 for $$$ reasons. I'm considering something in the 70-80 range and a good tow tune, because also towing and managing EGTs on this truck SUCKS. I don't tow with it much anymore, but it's nice to know its there.
I have a full CAC to go on, I know that will help a little, but not tons.
There is a delicate balance between power/smoke on these older trucks, and I'd love to find it. I had considered at one point taking it back to stock and being done with it. I never acted like a dick, but I know I have looked like one numerous times. I'm just over the whole thing. I'm of the 'less is more' mentality.
In not as many words, I want to scoot along with less evidence.
