you dont even have to go as far as new injectors, just a simple tuner will give you smoke as long as you are not looking to make the car next to you completely disapear. If thats the case then go and do a injector kit also.

Yep, a good chip will get you a long ways. Most folks around here are running a Dp-Tuner or a TW tuners. They have the best programming for our trucks. Getting some gauges would also be a good idea if your plannin on getting chip. Injectors are expensive and may take more supportive mods to get their full potential.

www.dp-tuner.com

For the TW I think there are a couple of venders. I know dpppower.com has them.

You'll be able to put out some pretty good smoke on the 140 aggressive tune. Your hpop pry won't be able to keep up with it on the high end.
