Has it done that sice you bought the car? dos the car have any guages inside to read like a Wideband AFR or EGT or oil pressure

so it doesnt feel any slower? when you rev is it stuttering like mis fire? are the engine light on?

So all you have is what a boost gauge?

well ever since we got the car, it has had the Service Engine Soon light on. It doesnt feel any slower. I swapped the BOV in it last night because the RS that was in it didnt sound right so i put the RS out of my talon in and it seemed better. So what do you think it could be?

You mean for mods or gauges? its just got the boost gauge

Looks like rich as hell.. i dont get it. Hmmm.... i would find out what kind of code it is throwing. Something is nt right. Looks like a combination of coolant and fuel. Hmm... what the hell

does any ever drive behind you tht you know? maybe see what it does at WOT under boost. your check engine light is most likly your exhaust so I guess that wont help unless you do have a cat then who knows.

again what did the smoke smell like? how much boost is your car running in the cold weather on pump gas?

that is why I keep asking what it smelled like. its either rich ir oil. If its rich he may have a boost leak or a bad tune it is not a proven fact but we are all under the assumption that it has had a reflsh

I wouldnt say coolant that smoke is not white at all. the light color is normal but the brownish isnt so much

and is it just me or does that car sound weird? It sounds like and STi motor almost it ery strange
