Exhaust blows smoke at WOT I have been told that whenever I go WOT my exhaust blows out a white cloud of smoke I have yet to notice this but thought I would see if anyone has had a problem like this and what the fix would be. I recently have added Longtube Headers removed my cats and taken off my EGR and A.I.R system and was wondering if I might need to get my car re-tuned since the adding of the headers and removing the A.I.R and EGR and if that might be my problem?
lol someone mentioned that I need to install a catch can

mine blows the blues at WOT. But only at WOT will it blow smoke. i also need to get a catch can, as ive got hella oil pressure and I dont think that is helping matters any.

i would agree.... watch this dyno vid, when i stomp it i got some smoke. i saw healthy ls1s that day doing worse. all tuned and none burning any abnormal amount of oil.

might need a good catch can set up.
the only reason it really bothers me, is i'm tired of people saying you beat me bad, but you are blowing some smoke.

Mine starting doing it after my tune, and my tuner is known for tuning rich and the car has no cats so i'm honestly thinking it's just a combo of whatever the cats usually catch and unburned fuel.

That video looked normal to me... You are burning fossil fuels without any emmision equipment, what do you expect??
My old Nova smoked everywhere!! Disels blow huge clouds when they are tuned. I say if you dont want smoke from exhaust buy a prius!!
Lol but if your "smoke" looks like that video its normal.
