Tune/Smoke ?
I just recently purchased an SCT X3 for my F250 and love it. The tune I'm currently running is a 150hp tune that really puts some power to the rear wheels. If I do WOT then it will smoke really thick and black for a few seconds, then once the truck starts taking off like a jet the smoke is still there, but way way clearer. However, if I sit at a redlight and "power-brake" it (however I don't mean smoking the back tires, just trying to put some smoke out the tail pipe and into the rice-burner next to me), it will smoke barely at first, but then the back tires will start to spin the more I push the pedal (as expected, I know). But my question is this...I would like a "play tune" that would have really low boost in first gear so that I could hold the brake and push the gas and pour smoke out, but when it comes time to take off, it would have the power of my 150hp tune from 2nd gear on up. Is this possible? Thanks for any info.

NOT that I have done that....
but put it in 3rd gear and floor it to waste fuel all over that burner
many tuners dump too much fuel to ensure fuel is not the limiting factor in the power function...
also, more fuel has a somewhat cooing effect
but clean burning does not mean slow it happens when u balance the fuel and air needs perfectly...
and that is a function of knowing your trucks mods to a T ..
(which most tuners won't know....)

eric innovative diesel writes a smoke tune but beware my egts goo freaking crazy, i have my monitor to defuel at 1250 and im getting 100% backdown, but the sucker hauls plenty of power, but it does smoke quite a bit, iv never tried to power break it just to see if smoke will come out but im sure it would...
