DECAT BLUES??
I fairly recently had the up pipe decatted so the H&S System sounds great.
I've noticed my rear box geting black soot around it.
Today, when I pulled away quickly, I looked my rear mirror & noticed a puff of black smoke comming out the exhaust.
Is this normal & can I do anything to stop the build up of black soot?
Thanks.
Regards.

It was remapped after the STI Decatted Up Pipe was fitted.
It also sometimes backfires if I use the fun pedal & then take my foot off it when changing up through the gears.
