black smoke on start and when i get into it...

My FD spits what I believe to be carbon out of the tail pipe along with black smoke. It also lets out a mediocre black cloud when I get into it... Help...

When the car starts up, you'll probably get some black moisture out of the exhaust. That is pretty common. If you are seeing smoke when you go into boost, it could be a few things:

* turbos
* bad PCV (depending on the year of your car)

Typically as the turbos start to go bad, you begin to pool oil in your intake track. Try removing your intercooler and see if you have any oil pooled in it.
