You say you decided to run greys, did you simply jsut put the new injectors in or did you get a new chip/map applied to suit them?
I'm just wondering, if they were just slapped in have they pumped so much fuel in there and borewashed the cylinders causing rapid/excessive piston ring wear?

As above what colour is it, when exactly is it doing it, ie idling when you boot it on the overun etc.
As has been said though you can't just swap bits like this, the ecu/chip need to go hand in hand with injectors and boost etc, if it's black and sooty smoke could wqell be now overfuelling due to greys being fitted for a chip on greens.
