what size injectors are you running?
i just installed my 68 and 175/75s.. but had an electrical issue and wanted to go ahead and do my trans and converter while it was down.. so havent got to run it yet..

are you running custom tunes or just can tunes?
if you are running can tunes.. call Eric at Innovative and get some custome one written and he can probably clear up some of that smoke for you and make more power than the can tunes

how many miles on it? little sceptical bout buying a used turbo last time i did that it came covered in soot and oil and was not what they said it was lol

I'll vouch for the seller here. Stand up guy, turbo is what he says it is. I'd take the chance at getting a good deal on what you are after, IMO.

I've run mine for a year now and really like it. I have RCD'S 180/75. If you lug it in overdrive it surges, keep the r's up and she spools like a m f'er. Eric's xtreme x is crazy!

I remember the set of 190/100's I got from Busted Performance were ridiculous for smoke.
I posted a video of them with soft driving...looks like I'm trying to do a brake stand it smoked so bad.

I sent them back, and bought a new set from Ford.
