Installed the PRL Cobra CAI (Race MAF) and uploaded the TSP Stage 1+ (Race), was letting someone drive my Si the other day and when they would do a hard pull I noticed a puff of black smoke come from the exhaust. I'm sure I'm running rich but wasn't expecting that considering I am running the correct tune.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Tuned 10th gens's usually put out a lot more fuel soot. Some black smoke is most likely normal. My back hatch gets black dots of soot between washes.
