I flame here and there. You can see smoke when the turbo goes and the fuel richens on mine. Eventually leaves nasty brown/black **** on my white paint above the exhaust =( a ***** to clean

I'm running a test pipe and even though my engine doesnt run rich enough to where you can see the smoke ,I still get the black spot on my paint..greased lightning takes it off in seconds
