Searched all forums and couldnt find exactly what im looking for. Im running about 14-15 psi boost and the car is running really well. When i go to WOT, I get a huge black cloud out of my exhaust. I read that im probably running rich. Anyway to fix this without afc?
 
when you go over a certain percentage of throttle the ecu sends as much fuekl as possible and over rides your emmisions crap and fuel mileage. So basically your car dumps a$$loads of fuel giving you your black cloud. Does it affect performance?? if not they why fix it....WOT is where you want ALOT of fuel you lean out the bottom end for low end torque and such...not the top end. Now if it is or was affecting your performance then Id worry. other then that let it puff some clouds.
