i'm guessing you don't have a/f guage. How's it drive? Is it bucking at all? I get a little bit of white smoke when i am ***** to the wall, but i only see it when i watch video's of my car. But i am set up to run rich.
Also do you have a boost guage? If your losing boost you will run richer. I had that happen to me and it was my diverter valve.
