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

Does your Boosted S2k spit soot on everything?

For some reason the car spews black at the speed limit.

Big thanks to Arrrmand for the pics...

Occasionally great balls of fire depending on what we had for lunch
Must be silverstone related. We have a guy in Tampa that does that too.

Yeah and on my rear bumper you can not just wash it off after a while, you have to actually use a wax cleaner and then polish or it leaves a scummy film.

Soot. Yep soot. Well more soot. I keep a couple extra coats of wax on the bumper just for soot removal.

No. The cat may prevent the flames out of the exhaust but may actually increase the soot.

Then pull it in front ways.

I don't know, I have a little soot on my rear bumper, I just spray Detail Mist to get rid of it, but not a lot. I will try backing it up to my garage door to see how bad it really is. I know I run rich, seen the a/f at 10.0 some split seconds, and idle was at 12.5, but it now fixed, still work to do, waiting until after the Dragon.
