I have a 99 also , and I have a TST power Max 3 when turned up it adds 135HP and 360 Lb-Ft Torque and It will barely smoke , Its all because of the VP44 emissions

 

I didnt know they we're Emission controlled

 

Actually, they're right. Excessive black smoke means that the engine is overfueled - there's far too much fuel for the amount of air available for combustion.

Laugh all you want - smoking out intersections just gives your fellow citizens more reason to petition their representatives demanding that something be done about those "filthy diesels".

True, But hey its fun, and just like everything else, the law cant stop everything, just make it harder. i can run smokeless! So HA!

 

I'll just be sure to smoke for 9.9 seconds.

 

hahahaha thats right on the money... besides soccer moms dont come to the drag or the pulls, and if they do, well we know what that means!!! MOM PUT YOUR CLOTHES BACK ON!!!!

 

The drags and the pulls weren't the subject of the original poster's question.

hey man, i know what makes em smoke. i wasnt calling them a liar, i just found it really funny

and im with mysterync

 

not trying to quarl but simply put , we dont really know what its for. Let him get a warning or a nice hefty ticket, If you try to tell him on here he'll never listen, Tickets make people listen thats there job. He wont smoke people anymore. At worst people complaining is going to put new regulations in effect or more strictly enforce those in effect ! Mainly on the town county level! Eventually it will go epa and emission standards , thats why i have some old trucks too!

Hey Black,
TDR sent me an appology note! thats nice of em hu? there pretty good people over there

 

I aint worried about tickets thats only money if i can **** someone off and get a good laugh i'll pay a ticket a week.

 

What worries me more then anything about smoking people out is them getting very very mad and then vadalizing my truck, to me its not worth the risk, sure every once in a while when someone is driving like a jerk, i may give them a face full so they will smartin up, but for the most part i try to be considerate

 

Yea but today you never know when someones a quicker draw than you and fills your face with a hefty shot of lead!

 

Nothing wrong with a little fun, but I read waay too much on this forum about guys wanting to smoke people. It's like cutting off your nose to spite your face IMO. It is ulitmately putting a bad face on Diesels to the public. And don't misjudge the public opinion....that is what makes laws!
JMO, though I like to see a little smoke coming from my stacks

 

Very True, Never Once Question the Opinion with someone that has money... seems thats the way the world goes around now!
I've been known for a smoke show but anymore i just putt around!
As i get Older Smoking gets older... not to mention i saw that wrecked viper srt10 truck on ebay... ouch, think ill take my chances under 80 from now on!
