first a quick run down of whats going on any help would be great as we have exhasted all options.

its on the dyno getting a tune the A/F perfect 12.0 threw the rev range but just excess fuel black smoke coming out of the exhaust.

now we have changed O2 sensors on the dyno A/F reader also borrowed another one from another tuning shop down the road, both read fine and identical when charts compaired. pulled my car off and put a differnt car on the double check and the sensor is reading perfect.

now there is no power loss and response is great but just excessive black smoke and fumes/fuel you can smell it.

put a brand new O2 sensor in can come out black as f*** also changed plugs after and where realy carboned up.

run down on engine

fully forged

head work

cams tomie b

-5 turbos

pfc pro

z32 afm's

full race twin kotomoto exhaust

dumps

hard piping kit intake and cooler

blitz bovs

hks twin power cdi

yellow jakets coils

800cc sard

tomie reg

044 surge tank

hks cam gears

any ideas would be great cheers

its twin seperated from the turos right back,

sensor was put in both tail pipes both read identical so this ruled out the first 3 and last 3 cylin runnin differnt

also the exhaust has 02 ports just after dumps, put in both sides up front and same thing reads perfect A/F ratios

Sounds like super polished combustion chamber - did you specify a combustion chamber suface finish? However if the pulgs are black then I would be looking at the tune. Any chance its really rich on cruise and idle?

only when it get into load the dyno room starts filling up with smoke and fumes

on idle and cruze its fine.

the reason for the retune in the first place is i had some crap go threw my turbos, had the turbo wheels replaced and fitted them backup.

changed the catch can setup from intake sucktion to just atmo filter. also put the blitz bovs on and hks twin power.

when its a full noise and bellowing out black smoke the afr are reading a perfect 12.0 that why its got us stumped. we even wiped the tune and started again but same thing.

super polished combustion chamber why would this cause bellows of black smoke? the head was ported and polished and also the combustion chambers where polished but cant see that being the reson for the smoke.

and i dont mean a little puff of black smoke, it filles the whole dyno room in a power run its that bad. but power is there 375awkw on pump fuel straight up

Polished combustion chambers cause less atomisation hence the 12:1 AFR and exess soot. Seen it on many cars with polished combustion chambers. The sards wont give you great atomisation either.

12.0 isnt perfect. different for every car. under full load 13 idle 14.7 is a good start.

What else causes black smoke? Everyone tells me my Stagea blows black smoke, but I've had it dyno tuned so it goes ramps up to 11.4:1 up in the revs. Would that be too rich? I have a 100cfm 5" cat, would that have anything to do with it? Sorry for hijacking.

when your turbo's crapped themselves did oil go through ur intercooler? you may have residue oil in there that get pushed up under boost... another thing to check is decel fueling coz if its real rich it takes some time to burn all the excess away. What ECU are you using?

Turbos didnt fully crap themselfs, i was doing some maintance checks and fould my comp wheels abit chewed up, so just had new front wheel put on.

if it was burning oil it wouldnt be black smoke would be blue. also you can smell that it def fuel.

its running a pfc pro

reguards to plugs running .7 gap and not sure what heat range, same as what we have always run tuner has them in bulk lol

when you baby it around then only give it stick now and again it blows out all the deposits (condensation and carbon type build up).

Hmmm that could be it. Gets babied most the time and give it the stick every now then..

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
