you just have to make sure the turbo is getting oil. AS for the black smoke...haha welcome to running rich and safe The blue box was meant to run really rich.

blue box flashing is normal....

http://www.turbocivic.net might help

black smoke is normal.. but i will check all your connections of the blue box again...

the greddy kit's oil feed line comes in standard size, you don't need to cut nor extend it.. it's the right length

welcome to the dark side and enjoy the BOOOOOSSSTTT
