If it's black smoke, your running rich....intake and catback should clean that up a bit

I had this problem and Lucas Fuel Injector cleaner works like a champ for a few thousand miles..



It's a very small bottle but very potient. Also, buy a better set of spark plugs, it will burn gas more effiencent without the problem of running super rich.
