Somewhat new to diesels on land and i see alot of people talking about this (smoke switch) what is it what does it do, i just got myself a 99 24v it already has the edge chip with 5 levels and a k and n cold air intake i just got a 5 in from the turbo back with a 6 in stainless tip should look and sound great.

anyone kno what one is????

yea first thing first, junk the k and n go with a wix pn#42790 or you can do a search on bhaf (big honkin air filter), the smoke switch is a switch that goes into the map sensor and basically fools the motor into thinking that it is under full load when it really isnt, making it dump tons of fuel and tons of black smoke, some say it dosent work, but i have news for them, it does.

could this wire tap unit do any damage to the engine also thanks for the relpy man, i gottta wait a few pay checks for the intake because i have a mbrp 5 inch turbo back with the mufler delete pipe and a 6 in tip on the way which was not cheap

i followed a dodge and a ford into hutto yesterday.
the guy driving the ford sounded like he was
pressing in halfway on the clutch to keep the
turbo spooled up and he was blowing smoke out
the wazoo - and i mean constantly. i think it
looks pretty sweet, but i was counting the $$'s
coming out of his tailpipe. followed him and his
buddy about 13 miles and he would blow smoke
every 10 seconds or so.

couldnt help but think what a dumb arse.

once or twice is alright, but constantly blowing
smoke that way is retarted.
