Hm.. me thnks its oil also, it does it straight on start up but after say like 4-5 min of warming up its fine, then it only does it when its in normal operating temp like after a 20 min drive and idling afterwards at the lights.

Another thing is that whilst my friend was following me last night on the highway just cruising it he said he saw a short blue flame come out and i ve had a few mates tell me this b4 but dont know what to make of it i understand its normal to see um,.. a normal yellow flame? hehe but never heard of blue b4?. Bob the guy who tuned the car said he's tamed the fuel-in on decceleration so it should rarely throw flames out unless im caning the **** out of it.

Oh yeah btw cos i live in NZ theres no need to have a cat either :P
