Well heres what hapened.
Car started to hesitate while accelerating.CEL came on so I figured could be a fouled spark plug rigth!
So I check and I was corect the #1 spark plug was fouled.
So I decided to buy all 4 ngk and gap them at 0.29 since my car is fully stock.
Reset my ECU and all is well my car stop hesitating.


:mad: :mad: But then when I wnet for a test drive and hit the gas (WOT) and look at my rear view mirror al I see is a big ass cloud of smoke!!!:mad: :mad:
Its kind of white brownisch colored.
Upon closer inspection I decide to take out the #1 spark plug again since it was the faulty one in the first place and it had some oil in it.

Once again it only smokes when I punch it or leave the engine reving steady at more than 4000RPM or when going into BOOST.
It does noy smokes when its at IDLE.

What could it be?
Valve stems or the #1 piston ring?:confused:
 
:cry: :cry:
AAHHH! no love for a fellow racer:(

By he way wanted to mention again that the car does not smoke while ideling.Only when boosting or keeping the engine steady at high RPM smokes like the SPY HUNTER:mad:
