what exhaust do you have, borla with the block off plate is the only one i know of that has two pipes and can come out of one pipe. i thought you were looking at the spark plugs to tell it was rich on the one side.

I will have to look to see what exhausr it is. but the H pipe is a custom one if that matters. looking at the plugs well they where all black. It threw me when i remembered it was tru duals. So why is all the smoke coming out of 1 side of the exhaust? stopped up maybe?

As soon as the rain clears up I'll get some pic. But how my exhaust runs, Out of the headers in to a single LARGE pipe. Runs along side of the drive shaft. Then the single pipe goes into a magnaflow muffler then theres a outlet 1 on each side of the muffler for the dual exhaust .

So I guess I should call that a Y. Thanks

yep its not true dual, so you are running rich on a cylinders. test your evap system. change your plugs, clean or change your 02 sensors. the problem may be in the tune.
