Welcome! Does your turbo shaft even spin at all? I'm just trying to get a better idea of whats happening here. Sounds like you're getting alot more fuel than air in there so that can't be good.

Finally got black smoke? Getting black smoke with stock injectors isn't a good thing. Plus black smoke is what people want to look cool, not necessarily the best thing for performance.
