[Vwdiesel] TD swap black smoke from using NA exhaust?

[Milton Kaplan]

James,

The Canadian mechanic who installed the td engine also suggested putting
on a proper free breathing exhaust system and report back before
tampering with anything. He said everything is timed and properly
adjusted. Meanwhile as Loren suggests, I will keep rpm's up to reduce
loading the engine, causing the smoke for now.
