Welcome man, you'll come to find the members on this board are definitely not import haters, just rice haters. We respect all fast cars, whether its a bad *** 454 big block such as your chevelle or a bad *** Supra or DSM such as yours. You wont find a better source of tech knowledge on the internet other than LS1tech.

I'm a closet DSM'er too. I'm here because as soon as my car runs, it's getting sold and I'm going to perform a scandalous LS1 swap.

I have a question, this is not meant as a bash or anything, but I saw a new EVOVII that belched black/grey smoke when he nailed it on the freeway, what could have caused this?

If it was just a quick fart of smoke, it was fuel being dumped as it boosted.
