how much smoke

Ok I have a 10 plate in my truck and it was really smoking too much I was going to adjust it to clean it up but I put a BPRS 4" exhaust on it and the smoke is almost gone now
is this normal when you do a exhaust mod like that

I have to say I really like this new exhaust and the fuel economy

Bigger exhaust allows the engine to breathe better = more air to burn fuel = less smoke

Yep, smoke equals wasted fuel/HP.
