Did u just change something? was it running well before? I see you have a j-tuners kit, what base fuel pressure are you running? maybe the FMU is not set to the correct ratio? Does it idle well? not rev well?

Sounds like you are running way too rich.

Pull your plugs out, put new ones in (not stock heat, about 2 ranges colder). Put a new O2 sensor in, clear the codes, and try again. You have to expect these things when you mod the car to the point of a turbo, its NOT going to run perfect, you WILL have problems. If you give up that easy, you probably shouldn't have done it in the first place.

correct shifted, we're modding our cars here, without any tuning your obviously going to run into problems because youve changed parts and not ungraded the ECU. If everything ran perfect everyone would be boosted because things would go together like butter. I luckily (knock on wood) havent had any problems really other than running rich and i barely see black smoke outta my exhaust, that will change though here soon with HPT and i have a load of mods done. Hell i get codes here and there and all i do is unplugg the ECU wires for 10 mins, plug them back in and about 4 startups later the cars perfect again.
