i am looking into a TS 6 position chip but i heard on level 5 and 6 my truck will pour black smoke. i dont really want to be smoking people out when i gt on it. is this true?

 

No, it's not true with stock sticks. You will see a bit of a light haze maybe, but not the same cloud you get from heavy fueling on high flow sticks.

Also TS is a good start, many can re-burn them with custom settings when you upgrade other things (I think DP use there own 'style' chip, but many others start with a TS style and re-burn)

 

look into dp tuner

and if your truck is stock, you most likley wont be smoking that much.

 

i guess you can say its stock. i have the 10k mod, 3 inch downpipe, 4 inch strait pipe, FPR shim, and the 6637 filter. will the chip make it smoke with these things done?

 

That's pretty much 'stock' = not much if any smoke. Might want to pull your 10K mod when you get the chip, won't really do anything at that point. I wouldn't worry about your truck making to much smoke with that configuration and stock 90cc injectors... they just don't fuel that much

 

do u know anything about the Banks Big Hoss module? if so whats your opinion?

 

no. dont do it.

I'd stay away from banks 'electronics' in general. They make a good IC spider and IC (WAY overpriced, but well engineered) Other than that you're wasting your time with Gale...

 

so will i have a noticeable power increase with the TS? And Also, if i got a set of Full Force Stage 1's would the smoke still be minimal with the TS?

 

Yes, you should notice some 'seat of the pants' power increase with a TS chip. If you go with injectors, you should have your chip re-burned to match the injectors. Smoke can ALWAYS be controlled by 2 things, 1) the tuner can 'tune' them in correctly to run the way you want 2) your right foot and how far you bury it. ALSO note that you're going to be putting more strain on your Trans once you start looking at injectors, so a good aftermarket trans cooler is a must, also can consider a solid shift kit. OR a clutch if it's a hand-shaker

TS is a decent chip. Im planning on getting a TS soon. Then when I upgrade to stage 1 injectors, Im gonna get it reburned by TW or PHP. Just cant see paying 400-500 on a custom chip for stock injectors when I gotta get it reburned for stage 1's anyway. If that helps you any with your decision.

 

I have Full Force stage 1's and a TW chip and smoke is minimal unless I'm pushing it hard... It's all in the tuning.

 

Hey James did you get remaned or new injectors. I dont have a problem with remaned stuff usually but with injectors im on a little on the worried side. but for the price and good talk about full force i would like a set of remaned one.

 

Premium rebuild...All new internals and new nozzles. Same thing Jim does with his premium builds. You send cores and he plops new internals, nozzles and orings on it and ships it back to you. So they are not "new" injectors but they don't have a Reman stamp on them.

 

Ahh right sorry rebuilt ok thats what i was looking for. So bacsically all new stuff except for the main body of the injector? I like the sounds of that, definetly something i wouldnt have a worry about running.
