Default Smoke System Question

I have seen a couple of posts fairly recently (but I can't find them now [&o]) suggesting that when using a smoke system with a 'standard' engine installation using a thrust pipe, the smoke fluid should be injected at the end of the pipe and not behind the turbine.

Does using this method still produce good smoke? Is the exhaust still hot enough or does the smoke fluid need some sort of pre-heating?

Has anyone had any problems injecting the fluid into the turbine exhaust directly (i.e. before the pipe?).


I've used smoke before on an 'open' system, so know how to set it up, but not when using a thrust pipe.
