first...if your engine exhaust is smoking on a hard pull and the pyro heat is going up, probably you are dumping too much fuel into the cylinders and calibrations may be in order. If the engine exhaust is not smoking and you are getting higher temps then best you check the engine timing, it may be a little off.
