Smoke coming out the exhaust

[MidnightGTR]

Sorry to ask the question everyone else has been asking, but mine seems a bit different.

Under light acceleration the car seems to blow a bit of white smoke, but when you accelerate hard and prob a bit after full boost (around 5000rpm or so) a big black ball of smoke comes out the back (just 1) like a cloud and then theres no more.

The car seems to still have its power (ran 13.2, stock 33 gtr), apart from that the only noise I started getting from the engine was a slight ticking when the car was first started in cold after an oil change, but was told this is just because of the thin oil (motul 4100 turbolight)

Do you think its an engine problem, or just running rich in top end and will be sorted with some tuning?

I have a PFC but ive been waiting till after I get the new turbos and other pieces on to get it tuned.

Sounds fine.

Just the wastegate opening letting exhaust gasses out.

I'd say white smoke might be from the oil getting hot and thin.

So he listens to your advice, then blows his motor....Good idea there mate.

All i can say is go get the Power FC tuned ASAP. Dont wait to do it later, unless you can afford a full rebuild....

Usually -

White smoke = coolant or blown ring land

Black smoke = excessive petrol

Blue smoke = Oil being burnt off

None of these is a good thing to have

We'll you never no i could just be the thin oil,

but what he described is exactually what happened to our project R33 on the dyno. white smoke after the run.
