Just went through this with a friend of mine... Searched everywhere and tried everything. A tube going into the catch can was pinched...

it is not the turbo....log the car and you'll figure out what is happening....black smoke is caused by rich condition....so your question is why am I running rich right after WOT ?....my guess is your o2 sensor, but I would need more info. to be 100%....

Your car is spraying a TON of fuel and then does not lean up quick enough (10:1 AFR after lift off is your problem)....not sure if it is your tune (adjacent cells), fuel injectors, or a bad 02 sensor...

can you post your fuel maps?

maybe your car is changing to the low octane maps after lift off (never seen this) but i know those maps are VERY rich.

had the same problem using the perrin catch can.....it would only smoke on lift at WOT turned out where the perrin catch can is mounted was right under the front strut tower bar, which had the catch can hose pinched.....once I found this, and straightened the hose out the problem went away....

so check if it isnt piched i would check the hoses and can to make sure they arent clogged...
