7.3 psd rolling coal

I know this sounds may sound funny to some of you guys but what's a easy way to get my truck to roll coal I was thinking about adding a smoke switch but it seems cheesey and I dont wanna have my engine light come on I already have a chip and I have a muffler delete on my truck and I only roll a little coal every now and then but I wanna be able to roll coal so when someone is tail gating me or something I can smoke them out

You could be a total douchebag, but why prove it to everyone?

Since you're into poorly running trucks......just get you an orifice file and ream out your injectors....who cares about 140 CC....stick a 1/4" drill bit in there and make them bad boys 300cc flow injectors

"Rolling Coal" will also get negative attention. Not only from cops, but from the public in general. They see a nasty dirty diesel making all that pollution and it gives all diesels a bad name. It also gives law makers and eco warriors ammo to use against us in the form of higher taxes on fuel and more regulations and restrictions on us.

Tune it right (clean) and if someone is tailgating you... leave them in your dust, not your wasted money (fuel smoke) LOL!

Here I was withholding my negative comments because I didn't want to look like a...jerk! Good to know there are some lines that members don't want to cross.

Someone suggested a few years ago the plastic bag mod. Put a plastic bag around your air filter, and it'll smoke.

Better still, go buy an old dodge 5.9 cummings, straight pipe it with a stack, and you'll be the envy of every high school girl around,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Yeah, it's been posted before, but it's still funny.

Cattle racks are a nice option too!


Seriously though, no respectable tuner even writes smoke tunes for our trucks. It's been one of the causes that the emission restrictions have been greatly increased on diesel pickups.

I was the recipient of two trucks, rolling coal, after passing me on the freeway on my bike.
I instantly asked myself "What kind of juvenile douchebag does that"?
I now have the answer.

You will find a vast majority here at FTE (my opinion, not backed by any data) will advise against rolling coal, even those of us who used to love rolling coal many, many years ago, me included. But that was before it became an act held up by the enviro-****'s as justification for more stringent emissions laws for our diesel vehicles.
