Lots of Black Smoke
What does it mean? 
When I go about 3/4 to full throttle, I get a continous black smoke trail that continues until I let off and a very stinky smell inside the car.
At first, I thought that the tuner (I have hondata) made it too rich, so I installed a PLX wide band and it goes anywhere from 13.0-13.5, during 3/4 to full throttle.
Should I have the tuner lean it out, I have read that the A/F is where it should be, but I cant stand the smoke trail, it makes me feel if I am in the game "spy hunter" and leaving a smoke screen everytime I get on my car.
The timing is set at 16, but the tuner could have modified the timing using the hondata, Would that be the problem? Help, it really stinks.
Its a 1996 Gsr, hytech clone header, short ram intake, magnaflow exhaust, skunk2 stage 2 cams, 310cc injectors, P&P head, p28 hondata.
