Default minor gremlin

ok, at idle car doesnt let out any black smoke, but when i get on it black smoke everywhere... got new plugs, there no leaks in intercooler pipings or couplings... i put back stock SMIC just to prove that and it sitll smoke a bit...ermm plugs are black so changed them in for some new ones and it still blows out black smoke... should i reset my ecu see if that does anything?? or what else could be causing this... still at stock boost btw

black smoke means your running rich. so does black spark plugs. maybe your injectors need to be cleaned? how is your gas millage?
