rolling coal

I have a 04 f250 6.0 with a sinister EGR delete and a SCT tuner. I was wondering just for the he** of it, what would I need to do on the programmer to get it to roll some coal every once in a while if I wanted? Is there something in the tuner I need to adjust?

Put a hot tune in it. Stab the throttle and enjoy.

You could always grab a pillow and stuff it in your filter box...

Put the meanest tune on and put the pedal to the metal.

If you go crazy with it prepare for a gasket job.

Also, is your cat still on?

However, rolling coal is frowned upon. Gives the hobby a bad image and gets the politicians on our case.

Cheers,

Nate

How about you don't so that we don't have the rag-brained EPA busybodies
make any new rules for us to deal with.

Please don't feel flamed for asking this and we all can do what we want, regardless of what others think. I don't want to be the smog police here, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention to you that those of us that use tuners sensibly will eventually be under the microscope because of those who draw attention to the use of tuners. Like I said, you can do what you want, but just know that by bellowing out huge smoke in the public's eye, you are hurting your diesel-head brothers.

OP, It's a free country, (Well used to be) and you can do what you want to your truck.


That said, coal rollers make me want to kick babies and punch grandmas.


5 heaping cups of Bauxite sand in the oil will make lots of smoke.

Why? Who cares? There is a time and a place for it. I laugh at everybody that takes the high and mighty attitude...

Going back about 45 years ago, burning rubber was the cool way of showing off; I was too frugal (meaning poor) to waste tires that way.

I do wish I could return to way back then, BUT with todays assets.
