Default GSR in EG - Smokes when ran hard.
My GSR smokes alot when I run it. IE racing. The compression is 200-210 all the way. It runs great but just smokes when I race it. Why does it smoke? Valve seals going bad?

I've noticed that when really getting on the gas, most DOHC VTEC's tend to smoke a little, especially when in VTEC...
