Fill out your sig and let us know a little more about your truck. What mods you have etc.

There are guys on here that have significantly more horsepower and produce very little smoke. Our trucks are very efficient and do not need to billow smoke to make good power.

Just a heads up dude, there are people on here that absolutely hate questions like these. Just have a thick skin and don't take anything personal(w/in reason).

You have joined a very tech savy and performance oriented forum. There is an abundance of info here and there are people on here who can help you w/ just about anything you can think to ask about these trucks. I don't have many posts due to the simple fact that most of the problems or issues I have had have been covered on this forum. USE THE SEARCH BUTTON and prepare yourself for a wealth of knowledge!!!

Good Luck!!!:cool:

I thought I read you were running a PPE Standard? If so , crank it up to level 4 and she'll smoke a little then:rofl: Mine smokes for a little bit and then clears up, but these guy's are right very little to no smoke is a good thing:thumb: p.s I know they say that stage 4 is too much for the tranz , but I have had no slips or other problems with it it just boils the tires! I dont pull or haul with it though. If I do I de program it.

With the PPE level 3 (160) you will get very little smoke. That's what I'm running in mine right now. It runs good, and virtually no smoke. Like what's been said crank it up to level 4 (225) and you'll get your smoke. And you are running 500 at the crank maybe, you are probably closer to mid/high 300's at the wheels.

I'm no PPE guy but I would think level 5 should be availbale with out an unlock code??? A PPE standard on level 5 is like what 160-200 horse i believe, I would not think an unlock code would be needed
