Default Smoke setup without tail pipe

Hello guys,

I have a question about smoke setups:

I have made several very successful smoke setups with Stainless Steel tubing (similar to the ones being sold online) crimped at the ends on an X-acto blade, with great results on a few planes with tail pipes - the smoke was always thich and white.

Lately my friend installed a similar setup in a Kangaroo with P-80 turbine, and the smoke he is getting is rather weak and thin - is this due to the fact that he's not blowing the smoke oil through a hot tail pipe ? and what can be done to intensify the smoke on such a setup where the turbine is installed outside of the fuse completely ?

Mind you we have always used one injector tube on all these setups.

thanks !
