Default can some1 give me any info on y it is smokin soo much?

i got gsr obd2 with i/e/h and zex intake wet set-up nos on stock internals. It was probably the nos fault for it, but, whenever my vtec kicks in u can see alot of smoke at the tail just lookin through rearview mirrors. i'm assuming its the rings but not sure...If u know wat the problem is, please let me know...

^^Thanks for the help

Most Hondas let out a bit of smoke once you hit VTEC...the important thing is recognizing the color of the smoke; therefore, what is causing it. If its blue its oil, if its white its coolant, and if its black, youre running rich.

How are you running fuel for the nitrous system? And how long have you had it on? What is the mileage on the engine?

My advice: compression and leakdown test

Ok, I had this problem myself...

Look for excessive oil around the solenoid...

also, there might be a chance that your valve guide seals are going because of the extra oil blasting on the distributor side of the head.


do a compression and leak-down.
