Smoke output is dependent on each individual truck. An 03 like yours is going to belch quite a bit.....definitely enough to get the "green police" on your case.

Disclaimer: I do not condone the use of "smoke" tunes as I like having the freedom to modify my diesel. Excessive smoke is the reason the eco-nazi terrorists are winning in the war against diesel enthusiasts.

*'*** hippies...oh wait...where am I? Uhhhh I meant *'*** eco-nazi terrorists edited for content

I have the 100 performance tune on my 02 and it blows a good amount of smoke when I step on it...quite a lot actually.

Hmmm....

What Cleatus said........smoke is **********! edited for content

There is a time and a place for smoke and it defiantly is not the street!

Ok guys....

I didn't mean this to start a trend. We have to keep this politically correct and if I let this fly, then I'm not doing my job.

I'm the epitome of anti-political correctness in person, but this is a family-friendly site and we need to make our members feel welcome.

Sorry Charles and Dave.......edits abound!

The 100 Performance tune will make a decent amount of smoke.....but it makes a ton of power too. Smoke tunes actually overfuel to the point of "snuffing out" the turbocharger so you don't achieve any benefit of the power rating until about 2000 RPM anyway. How much fun is that?

It can be made to lope. Yes.

I hope we're not giving you too much grief.

Sorry bout that.....

I admit when I first was looking into hopping up my diesel all I wanted was smoke. I quickly realized that smoke does not equal power, and is just a waste of money.......kinda like thrown money out the window every time I stepped on the gas.

Clean power is WAY more impressive than a smokey turd!

its alright guys. but yeah i want the smoke tune for just when im going through a parking lot or at a stop light or something and i just want it to lope like a muscle car and if i want to i can throw a little smoke in the air but im not the type of guy that is 2800r's constantly smoking out innocent bystanders lol. . i just want the lope and smoke in one tune instead of seperate. because i was very impressed with tonys tune and i know bill can do it just as good if not better.
