I commented in your post.

oh ok just wondering. cuz i have a programmer in my truck and its superchip. i got it a while ago but just wondering if that will make smoke come out. but thanks for letting me know.

If you are not running any type of chip or programmer you will not get very much smoke if any. The smoke is from excess fuel (due to a chip or programmer). I would stay away from programmers (unless you go with a good programmer like SCT) the 7.3 has chips available that you can switch on the fly. No waiting for a programmer to load. If you do decide on a chip I recommend Tony Wildman. He has some awesome tuning, plus if you ever decide to upgrade other components he will reburn your chip for free.

Unfortunately he is out of pocket for a while for personal reasons but if you are interested you can check him out here

yeah I installed them myself. took about 4 hours total. Nothing bad at all.

the stacks I bought used for 140 and I got the bed kit for 200 from a guy that changed his plans. I had already had a 4" turbo back straight pipe setup before I switched to stacks.

thanks bud. they are 36" stacks. the stacks and the bed kit are grand rock. the rain is not really an issue. If you think it will be you can drill a small hole in the exhaust under the bed for a drain. I have never covered mine even in hurricane rain and have never had a problem.
