sorted it it was the fule pump screw had been wownd rite in. so much better now i cane use the full throttle with no smoke. and ea a turbo would be good what would i expect of a 2.4t a little power or decent power. for what its worth i spose its good. will it crap my engine out in the longrun. and is there any temp issues.
