I expect my truck to produce smoke in race tune. At least my lb7 does I was wondering if this could be a problem and what should I do. Any help would be great! Thanks

I think you need to start from the beginning with better english & phrase the question better. We are all confused with what you're asking.

You stated in the first post "at least my lb7 does" mine does not smoke on my hottest tune.

If you want smoke that shouldnt be mentioned here. You can make it smoke with tuning but why.

What makes it confusing is the thread is labeled whats egr, but the question was about tuning and smoke.

I don't want or like smoke.. I was just wondering if it gets clogged from it?

You're adding fuel, so you're adding particles/soot...I would worry less about the actual EGR cooler and more about what makes it into the rest of the intake system.
