New turbo question

I just got my stock turbos rebuilt by BNR (stage I). My question is should they smoke ? I am getting quite a bit of black smoke out the exhaust after the turbos spool up. If this is normal how long should it last. I am getting plenty of boost.

Black smoke? While on boost? Sounds like you are running rich my friend.
