How much does the PHP 140 hp tune smoke with a 2000 7.3 with 6637? Also, to reduce that would a regular wicked wheel clear it up or would I have to do a turbo upgrade?
You will prob get lots of smoke with any 140 tune on a stock truck. Cant see your sig but I have been told that any tune over 100 is pointless on stock injectors. I don't have any knowledge of PHP tunes. I have have 160/30 sticks with the billet wheel on stock Turbo. It does a pretty good job or clearing.g up the smoke but as I go up in the tunes it smokes more. I am guessing this is a play tune. You wouldn't want to run in the tune all the time.

What he said ^^^
From what I understand you would be hard pressed to get any more than a 100HP out of stock injectors & the tune just calls for more fuel at the lower RPMs thus the "smoke". BTW I have PHP 120 race tune with a stock turbo & WW, it pushes a little smoke when I jump on it but clears up pretty quickly as the RPMs come up. Like JT says I just use it as a play tune
Your not going to be able to eliminate the smoke at the bottom end. At least with DPs the difference between the 140 tunes is the aggressive tune Jody adds more fuel down low in the rpms
As long as the smoke clears up a bit. I want to be able to punch it and not have a skywriters trail behind me. I was looking at the cummins forum and it has quite a few people that support "rolling coal". I bet all that "coal" is going to their brains!
You may be correct. If you have stock injectors your turbo shouldn't have a problem clearing up the smoke at the top end an turning it into a haze. At least that is how mine is at wot in my 140 aggressive tune. If you are still bellowing black smoke in your high hp tunes you may have a boost leak. If you have bigger aftermarket injectors with a stock turbo you may be running into a problem with not enough air glow for the amount of fuel going into the cylinder.
On the 100 and 140 hp tune it will put out some haze but its hardly a "smoke show"
A dyno run later will tell the tale but I think the 140 tune has a little more spunk than the 100. Somewhere I saw actual numbers and it was something like 15more hp
