smokey!

hey guys my car keeps smoking usually only when you first start it and only from one exhaust the left exhaust, i had new downpipes put on the car by blueflame but i told them to keep the cats(to keep the turbos alive), i was recently told by someone that the car was de-cated and this was causing the turbos to smoke, so i phoned blueflame and they said the cats had been kept on ,they said they are two boxes with leads coming out of them but someone else told me the downpies consited as part of the cat , can anyone enlighten me on this also whats the best way to find out if its the turbos smoking and not anything else ???

The blue flame exhausts are normally Cat back and thus dont effect the cats

no it was custom made and i got them to put new downpipes on the car but someone has told me the cats are part of the downpipes not just the two boxes behind the downpipes with the leads coming out of them ???

Im sure the 2 boxes with the leads are the cats. smoking on idle might be your PCV valves and not the turbo's.

Dont think conzult will spot that problem, though it will spot if you have dodgy 02 sensors which can also cause smoking.
