S2000 Forced Induction S2000 Turbocharging and S2000 supercharging, for that extra kick.

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.

Activate Smoke Screen!!!

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.

I have that soot everywhere in my garage.

What sucks is after washing the car and backing it into the garage, I have to re-wipe the rear b/c of all the soot on it!

When intentionally sooting on another car that is too close, we should call this Skeeeting! skeet skeet skeet

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.
