Does your Boosted S2k spit soot on everything?
If thats the case Sierra 2 Kilo, thats all i needed to know. I was just making sure it wasnt anything I should be concerned about. This is my first boosted vehicle, so I wasnt sure if this was normal.

I never really use to beat on my car much, but from running turbo without a cat my rear bumper would be pretty much completely black by the end of the week. My garage floor behind my exhaust also fell victum to the flying soot.
I think I use to run rich at partial throttle though, and at WOT I don't think that you can really help the soot issue.

These cars (particularly AP1s) tend to produce a sooty exhaust in NA form. Forced induction will only make it worse particularly if you retain the cat.
My solution for the garage is to always open the garage door prior to starting the car (white garage door).
If the soot is dry and powdery (kind of like graphite) I don't think there's any worries. Having the forethought to buy a Berlina helps as well.
