Those Who Have a VAFC, Please help my bumper!!

I hope some of you or someone can help me with my situation of having to wash my car atleast once a week because my bumper is COVERED In black crap! It started to get really bad once i got my vafcII installed and tuned. This is really getting on my nerves because people write stuff in it!! lol

But does anyone else have this problem?

Is it supposed to run this rich or is it running too rich?

Or is this just normal and i should just shut up and deal?

actually I got a VAFCII because my car was running TO rich. I had them lean it out A LOT. But the guy who did your tuning found the best power at that set of air fuel mixture. You can probalby lean it out somewhere but you might end up losing power.

I wouldn't lean it out, unless you are 100% sure of what it is set at. If you go too lean, you can burn up your engine.

Could he do a ****ty turn in his sleep?
Maybe a second look at the tune could tell us something?

Bullsh**t. If the car is tuned right and is NA your AFR should produce less soot than it did from the factory. Unless you never went WOT before tuning... your tuning is not correct.

What makes you think the guy can tune a VAFC in his sleep? Keep in mind something else might be wrong with your car, it doesn't have to be the VAFC. Do you have a CEL?
