Re: Smoke while WOT Thanks for the reply man!!
I am only concerned because it didnt smoke before.
Its a '00 TA, with 57k miles on it.
No major mods done to it.

Re: Smoke while WOT If its a lot of black smoke its usually carbon, if its blue its oil, if its white its usually coolant...
Carbon is fine, that just means you need to put the foot to the floor more to clean it out...
