I've noticed that when i'm boosting above around 4000rpm, there's crap flying out of my exhaust. It kinda looks like a cloud of dust or something and it doesn't happen everytime i'm boosting.

My car doesn't have smoke on startup, or spit that crap out under about 4000rpm.

Can anyone enlighten me on what it could be and how i might be able to fix it?

Yeah you might want to look at a new engine, new turbo or the fuel your using...

Could also be need for a service, you havnt serviced it enough or just new oil.. could also be a seal but i doubt it as you would see smoke on start up ..

so you got abit to look at but hopefully its just oil hey

i know i'm running waaaay too rich, so hopefully that's just the problem. it seems like it only does it once or twice after starting up before clearing up.

i'm in need of getting it serviced - so that could also contribute to it.

I was installing the numberplate on the rear of my car and looked in the exhaust and could see the insides of my canon were coming apart. I used a pair of pliers and pulled all this perforated metal out that was blocking the outlet. Then started the engine and gave it a few revs and all this fine dust came out in a big cloud. The canon is obviously rooted but its not noisy so meh

    • Jax Tyres Smithfeild Ive gone there a few time, well for tyres. on my 3rd visit I spoke to the dude and told how i just got slugged for rotors, brakes ect. His reply was golden; have you read whats on the front of the building. Never forgot it.       before picture, good friend got all these goodies installed.  Well time to study, servicing, maintenance all before this weekend driving lesson.  
    • Hello, first of, I’ve looked at many threads on this code but none have helped me, if you know one that will help me feel free to post a link.   Now to my problem. Recently I was driving and noticed the check engine light came on. I went home and did the test to see what code it gave. I got the 21 code but everything seems fine with the car, no misfire, idle is good, acceleration is the same as when I bought it. I mean no signs of obvious failure. If no misfire is happening I can rule out the coil packs right? Which is about 98% of posts saying it is. If anyone has had this happen and found the issues let me know please. No other lights are on.   The car WAS due for an oil change. I since then changed it so idk if that triggers code 21. Either way it hasn’t turned off.
    • Your both right, it may hold a bit longer then.  Soon I need to change the synchros, should I fit the billet plate while I'm at it? Or just a waste of money?
    • Some of the east coast US Stagea got together this past weekend at Lime Rock Park in CT for Grid Life Circuit Legends. This is probably my favorite pic of the shoot with @Morgan.Mundahl on IG. Hope we get more stags out next year! i think I spotted 5 other than my own at the event.
