TW Chip

Anone have the smoke program on their TW chip? I have a question about it. I just put the chip in and was out testing everything. When I put the chip in smoke mode it shakes the truck and makes it feel like there's a big cam in it. All the other modes are fine and no problems there. Any insight or should I just call Tony on Tuesday and ask him about it?

injection timing altered so much that rough idle is the side effect of power. Not to mention the duration of the injection itself is lengthened dramatically. Thats why you get a lope.
