Default car stinks while in boost??? and spits out gray smoke at WOT

just got my car tuned and and my a/f is almost perfectly stoic throughout the powerband. before it was tuned it would smell like burnt gas all the time due to running rich, but after the tune, it only stinks around 5-8 lbs of boost??? i thought the dyno time would get rid of this awful headache-inducing smell, but its still there. is this normal for a boosted tuned motor?? i kinda got used to it, but my friends all get headaches. is this normal???

And you wonder why it stinks.

Put your damn CAT back on.
