how to get smoke while sitting still?
I just saw a youtube video of a 6.0 sitting still, holding the brake and getting on the gas and making his truck smoke like crazy. My truck is tuned with an EGR delete and I can't make it do this to save my life. It smoke like crazy if I romp on the throttle really fast while sitting still or moving, but I can't just sit there holding the break and pressing the throttle at the same time and make it do it. What mods do I need to do?

I still want the power, I don't think it would be very good for if to ride around like that. I could just see me pullin up next to a ricer at a red-light, hopping out and popping the hood, putting a bag over the intake, getting back in and smoking the hell out of it, then not having any power to leave him...don't feel like gettin laughed at.

There are 2 things you can do.
1. Install a smoke switch, which is basically tagging into a wire on the turbo and running it to a toggle switch which will not let the turbo build boost. You can do a thread search on that and find out which wire that is, i never wanted to do that because i've heard its bad for the turbo if you do it too much. (this is probably what the guys in the video had)
2. If your truck is an automatic just put it in 3rd and start to brake torque it. You can usually find the sweet spot where it will dump smoke without building too much boost to start lighting up the tires. You will never be able to do it in Drive with out spinning the tires, it just builds power to quickly with a tune.

I guess I am not awake yet. How does blowing smoke make ricers feel like ricers? If you want to put them in their place just race em. LOL
