Lack of Smoke

Well as you may or may not know I got a new Goerend tranny put in the other day as well as installed a smarty. I have some vids of me at the track and many people have been surprised at the lack of smoke comming from my truck including myself. Is there something wrong with my truck or do I just need some CP3 work. Thanks for the help.

I am no expert or anything but I can put out lots of smoke on sw2, try to floor it from a stop, safely, and see if it will blow smoke, perhaps it does not blow smoke because you have boost built? jmo

From a stop if I stomp on it, it will smoke a bunch. Thats what I am thinking that I bring up the boost slow and its up to boost and stays at peak boost.

What are your smarty settings? If you had a bigger turbo, sticks and smarty, it would smoke real real nice while staging.

Mine on the other hand will roll coal like a powerplant on anything above sw3. Truck pulls like a beast.

But I'd be happy to see that, means you're using all of your fuel. Could also mean time for more fuel, but depends on how you think. If you want the wow factor of smoke then break out the plastic.

Have a FASS, so I'm not concerned about the FP. What do you guys think of the CP3?

With the mods in my sig and tnt on 5 Mine will black out traffic if i punch it from a stop. Spooling up from a stop it does the same.

When I had my stock turbo my truck would smoke like crazy till the turbo got goin. But, when the truck was on the dyno the boost would come on fast enough that there was no smoke. My dyno runs looked just like your drag runs smoke wise. Do you have a rail gauge? What kind of boost and egt temps are you seeing?
