dp tuner problem

ive been having an issue with my truck lately, white smoke and erratic boost, well today I replaced the ICP sensor as an attempt to see if that helped, well now when i select the 140 tune on my DP tuner the truck just shuts off, could all these issues be attributed to something up with my DP tuner? FAYI (FOR All Yalls Information) I havent called where i bought my tuner from YET just scouting for answers

Describe "shuts off". Stumbles and quits, or just dies instantly?

Can you remove the Tuner and see if the truck runs better? might be worthy to trouble shooting without the tuner installed.To rule out the tuner (or in)

The truck runs fine except for the 140 tune ?
How were the other tunes before the ICP change ?

White smoke is be from Fuel that has collected in the cylinder chamber. What 140 do you have? Extreme or aggressive?

If it just dies, then there my not be a #4 tune on the the chip. If the switch it programmed for an empty file, it will shut you down faster that turning off the key.
