You'll get plenty - Nice thick black rolling smoke.
Keep in mind though that a stock torque converter is not going to like the 140 if used often.

I was a little disappointed in the amount of smoke that I am getting out of my Smoke tune. It may be due to the 150,000 miles on the HPOP. However if you what some serious smoke go for larger injectors and a new HPOP.

If you're trying for a smoke show, you'll get the best result by getting the engine into the right speed/gear. Just stomping on it at any given time might give you a brief cloud but depending on your speed/gear, it'll clear right up (and probably be a little rough on the tranny 
).
Try getting to about 43 mph, in OD, and then roll onto the pedal pretty far (but not so far as to force a downshift). That should produce some good results until it gets enough air to clean it up, as long as you don't push so far as to downshift, then it'll shift hard and clear up instantly. The key is low rpms, low boost (and the highest gear possible so as to keep those things low for as long as possible). Definitely easier in a 6-speed as you can just slide into OD at about 35 mph and it stays there.
You can only get so much from stock injectors, though.
(And I recommend doing this only on sparse roads, away from other cars. 
)
