Damn! I have no clue... I was thinking you had said before that your car was stinky so I figured something triggered it to run rich all of the sudden and when I had rich running issues on a piston car, I would get gray/black smoke on hard accel and high rpm decel....
I hope its not your oil control rings

I think I just might start collecting parts to do a kickass n/a...very, very, slowly
maybe collect all the housings and such over 1 or 2 years....
