Keep the foot off the go pedal, accelerate slowly will prevent it from smoking.

If you go with a custom tunner, like an sct, a good tuner can make alot of power with out the smoke, Just cuz it makes alot of power dosent mean it will smoke. The guy i get my tune from he made me a track tune and it dosent smoke much at all, only from a dead stop does it smoke.

That's funny usually the complaint is that there isn't enough smoke to keep someone happy.

a larger turbo will help clean up the smoke, but it will still smoke until the turbo spools.

oh no no you need smoke lol! thats a first I have ever heard anyone say they didnt want smoke. I am trying to figure out how to get more smoke lol without having to buy injectors. Brother just equal out your air and fuel mix and you should be good on less smoke. Smoke doesnt always mean alot of power, actually in my opinion just means a waste of fuel, but **** it look cool !!!
