turn ur full power screw a couple of time rotate ur fuel pin and crank down on ur smoke screw. Clear as muck right.... Look in the tech facts for the full power screw. and on the fuel pin and smoke screw.On the top of your pump there is 4 screws take those out and pull the top off under there there is a rubber thingy pull that out and thats ur fuel pin look at it and you can tell its off set to one side.put the side that is "deep" toward the radiator. put the top back on and there is as round cap on it get the cap off and there should be a torx screw and 13mm (im thinkin thats the size) nut break the nut lose and crank down on the screw til desired smoke i think is how its worded. And Diesel Gurus if im worng somewhere correct me please.

A pyrometer is an absolute must if you have any sort of attachment to your rig. Everything else you can do without....for now...tach-you can't rev past the governor anyway. boost-while a good indicator of what's going on with fuel/air delivery, a boost gauge will not tell you when you're pushing more heat than the engine can stand...the pyro will.

you want smoke? just take the spring out from under the diaphram, she will smoke like an old coal stack any time you mash it

ditto on the afc spring. Also get the boost and pyro gauges first before any other mods.
