It was blowing black smoke which is caused from excess fuel from not changing the oil?

Well correct me if I am wrong. Black smoke = too rich in fuel. White smoke = burning oil. Blue smoke = enginge problem.

I used to blow alot of black smoke running 10psi of boost and when I went for a dyno tune, my A/F ration was toooooo rich. Have it tune with SAFC and the smoke was gone and power went up 20rwkw. So if it is blowing black smoke dont worry to much.

black smoke euqla rich. May do on full boost...mine may do it over 1bar sometimes depending on which cell I'm in in the map. Should be able to tune out.
