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.
