I didn't read all of this thread so if its been said then ignore it.

Back in 2008 when those guys got a little nervous about smoke up there in DC all of Jody tunes went under evaluation. This is when Jody started using more adjustments in ICP with his tuning. ICP helps with keeping the smoke down. Guys who complain of a touchier throttle need to understand it is ICP not timing that gives a touchier throttle.

Regardless of the EPA I am thrilled everyone is tuning Diesel's with the environment and our health in mind.
Well YOU of all people would know!

I would have to dig out my receipts, but I know it was called Smoke on my 140 tune. I think I purchased it in 2007, and it was through Dennis when he still had ITP Diesel. I do remember the drop-down had it listed as Smoke on his site, and there was also a 140 aggressive, which I didn't choose. The tune definitely DOES throw some serious smoke lol....that's why I rarely use it!

Our dealers may use different names to separate 140 E and 140A for their customers to which one they're in.

Have you ever cleaned the K&N filter? Looks like air restriction that should not happen with the K&N. The 'dusting' the turbo from any drop-in filter is because the lid is not on good and tight. Glad you got a new filter to let in more 'air' (dust?). Let that baby breath....

It's guys like you describe that are part of the reason we have to smog check diesels now.

Me neither. That's why I'm glad when people like us use their name as part of their screen name/user name, or when they put it in their sig.

P Cubed, it's never "a week late" when it comes to reaffirming that smoke is for cigarettes and forest fires, not diesels.
