I couldnt directly see the exhaust but I could certainly see what was coming out the exhaust as Dingys exhaust is on the drivers side and I was stood right next to the the dyno computer at the time!!!
A puff of blue smoke on the overrun is hardly anything to get worried about.....especially on a cossie - infact didnt they come like that from the factory! LOL!!
I can assure you that Dingys car pulls and pulls amazingly....and when you think that its impossible for it to pull anymore - he puts his foot down fully & you feel the insides of your body all mangle up!!! LOL! Its definately quicker than when I went to the ring with him a couple of years ago!! I just dont think the rollers could quite load the car up properly hence the reduction in figures!!

Could also be the fact that the thrust washer in the blower caused me issues and there was some oil dropped into the downpipe....LOL
As the car has not really had much hammer since this happened then it could be that
plus its a cossie and they all fucking smoke
