The wastegte seems to be tighter than from factory so it should not be low on boost for that reason that became clear when you said it's from 2003.... i cant say more than i've already said about the black smoke

Hey there - it’s a manual. To be honest i don’t know how the threads would be counted I took a photo. Found some oil under - tied up the screws. I double checked the loom on ECu plug and the plug on the harness both absolutely dry. Question...

As i said it doesnt seem a management issue, it's overfuelled for some reason and a bit low on boost... might be from the injectors or the turbo if you are certain that there is no boost leak... is it manual or auto? also how many threads are...

I've seen many logs and 10*C difference between the ECT and FT is quite usual and considered normal, as about hight FT input AFAIK when it exceeds 75*C a smoke limiter map kicks in and the ECU reduces the IQ(injected quantity), the higher the rpm...

here's a copy from the first generation nanocom's function list:

Good info, I had thought the gap should be a bit higher.

Fery, is it just me or does the fuel temp look high compared to the coolant temp, shouldn't the gap be a bit bigger, say 20C difference? The ECU uses the fuel temp to vary fuel injection because warmer fuel is less dense, so it would chuck more...

Update: took it today for a longer ride, still blows quiet a lot of black smoke with disconnected MAF sensor. Any hints I could look into? I checked the injector loom, no oil.

The good girl is back on the road! Took a small drive with MAF plugged in - strong accelerating caused a huge black cloud. Unplugged it - I feel abit the power loss, I can say zero black smoke. I recorded the the drive on the nanocom burning...
