Car puff black smoke threw up shifts and at deacceleration
 
My friend was behind me and said my car threw a little puff of smoke after each upshift or when I am deacceleration at high rpms. Wondering if you guys get the same thing

the car doesn't seem to be running rich......no smells.....no smoke on start up.......only mods are cai, gutted cat, gmmg, tb bypass. I only get a small puff of smoke right at redline during the upshift.
Thanks

Lt1's are programmed to fatten up the fuel mixture in the rpm.

That's fairly common. I noticed mine does it, especially if I downshift, or let off the gas after accelerating.

my car does it when i go WOT and it downshifts lol, the gutted catt will worsen it , its nothing to worry about untill it starts doing it alot and massive plumes form lol
