I understand diesels might smoke SOME but the crap I saw at SL last year was flatbillers running smoke tunes, period. I've also ridden in some incredibly quick Duramaxes that did not belch any smoke when romped on.

Better be Corsa or DB if it's exhaust... If it is stereo, we want the details.

Swapping stock muffler for a SS Magnaflow 12909. Did a lot of research over past month and almost pulled the trigger on a electric cutout, but then read to many bad reviews of leaking/ and not holding up. So I wanted to go mainly more sound and possibly free up some power . Stock Stainless piping on mine is 3.5" so there was no reason to ditch that. This muffler should please my ears and possibly free some hp. Keeping resonator on at this point also to make sure there is no drone. This vid helped me..

Its math. It could be anywhere between 400-430. It made 325 to the wheels on a shitty tune. Now it has been retuned and has more power. Never had it re dyno'd. This is using 20% for power loss. 25% yields like 430 HP. I used 20% because of 2wd. It could be lower. I need to have it redone on the dyno

How did you get 410hp out of a 6 Liter?

Does it have a cam in it or anything else done to it for more power? I thought they were only rated 365 at the crank?

Smoke comes with any diesel he ran on the dyno and putting down that much power will cause smoke, I don't mind if people roll coal I just don't like cocky people that buy a diesel JUST to do that

No, no it doesn't. Properly tuned maybe give out a little cough but should clean up. My 500hp/950ft-lbstq tune from ATP doesn't belch one little bit of black. Smoke thru the entire power range is a sign of poor tuning. Guys running big tunes will belch a bit until the turbo lights it should clean up. Guys running smoke tunes are pure cancer, and ruining the sport.

Only power stroke I like puts down 1001 hp with spray (that's what it's doing on this dyno) belongs to a friend if mine ImageUploadedByTapatalk1370994124.099237.jpg

 

Im surprised chevyboy isnt here complaining about how bad his tune is with all that smoke.

Chevyboy? Where are you?

 

Meh, whatever...it's on a dyno. Probly running a huuuuge tune. Turbos take longer to light on a dyno, resulting in smoke. If it is sprayed early on it helps light up the turbos quicker resulting a cleaner tune. A 6.4 to make 1000hp would take Big injectors, big fuel pump(s) take those turbos out replace with 400series fixed geometry, forged rotating assembly, head work and a garbage can size NO2 bottle...

 

6.4 fords are by far the cheapest diesel to make fast. Straight pipe, CAI and a spartan 310 or 350 will put down over 600rwhp. Won't last long but tey will do it. And the tranny will hold ALOT longer than an allison.
