Default Need advice on car running super rich

I'm running the 18G with blue box on my GSR and its been othing but a pain and now there's sut all over my tail pipe and I saw smoke coming from the tail pipe on the highway this morning. Should I just throw my hondata and P28 back in and stay off boost until I get tuned? The car ran fine with the Hondata and P28, but I never really reved that high, I just put in the Blue box thinking I could boost problem free until I got tuned. What do you guys think? Its an 01 GSR by the way.

The Greddy Blue Box should keep your partial throttle A/F ratio around 14.7:1 when not boosting. However you will run extremely rich (10.5:1) when boosting. If you stay off boost you should be fine. You can run the Hondata with basemap if you know for sure it has a decent basemap and won't wash out your cylinder walls during the time before it is tuned.

Yeah I'm going to check the plug gap, I think it may be high and my spark is going out. So I'll pop them out, clean them, and see what happens. car runs great though, so no worries. I called Shawn at Church today and I'll be up there the 25th
to see what magic he can work on my car.
