^sounds pretty accurate. Should check your codes like suggested. Anything in particular recently done to the car that it started this or you just get it and trying to figure it out?
In most cases :
black smoke = running rich/to much fuel
white smoke = burning coolant
blue-ish smoke = burning oil

Yeah...definately black means its rich. But only smoking at high rpms makes me think a little oil is gettin by the rings. Does it use any amount of oil? If so...u know what the smokes comming from.
