stuntman88,
Welcome to FTE and the IDI diesel forum.
If you get any black smoke out of the exhaust, you already have more fuel than you can burn with the amount of air in the engine.
More power would mean you need more air in the cylinders to burn the fuel.
As for the brakes are you loosing any fluid?
Did you change any of the rubber brake hoses?

With a turbo you could turn all that black smoke into power.
Once you have any black smoke, you need more air before you will see any more increase in power.
In fact if the smoke is black enough, less fuel may give you more power.
1/4 turn = 1.5 flats
That is a lot of fuel for a NA motor.
