idk to me it just sounds like ur running a bit rich. blue smoke usually is burning oil from what i kno. black is rich, white is antifreeze.
if i was you i would get ur tuned checked out......could be running really rich....whats your gas milage like??
and for sparkplugs i would get the ngk bpr8es and gap them to .023....let us know if this helps...

Well I ordered the plugs and will be here tomarrow noone had em in stock nearby. Running 23lbs of boost I get 250miles to tank.. That's consistant.. Im gonna see how things r after the spark plugs and im gonna hit up my boy that tuned the whip see what he say or can figure out
Check Engine Light, If you did your compression test by unplugging the Cam and Crank sensors, instead of unplugging the injectors, it throws a code for the crank/cam sensor, but doesnt matter. you plug them back in, reset the ecu and your good to go.
just checked the turbo for play and its perfectly fine no movement vertically or horizontally.. up n down in n out. im getting the plugs later ill see how it goes. if it doesnt fix the problem ill check with the flash an maybe somehow im running rich .. but it wouldnt make sense since i ran this car with this flash for over a year now and it never gave me problems

changed spark plugs and wires and the problem is gone.. i noticed one of the wires was ****ed up inside the boot.. the aluminum peice inside the boot that goes on the top of spark plug was loose and disconnected from the boot. so im asumming loose connection in the spark plug wire made a bad connection .. thanx everyone for the help and all the advice.. your guys are cool in my book! cheers!
