"dynamic" exhaust smoke system (controlled by boost)/throttle?)

    So the first thing I noticed with the new exhaust smoke feature is in (turbo diesels like t series) I noticed once the turbo is spooled up and its at full boost the smoke is still the same quantity as if there were no/little boost.

    Would it be possible to have the turbo (boost) "clean up" to the smoke once the turbo is a certain PSI of boost?

    for example at (5 psi (boost) "particulates"=0.83 ---> 15 psi "particulates"=0.53 ----> 25 psi "particulates"=0.23

    ---> X max psi "particulates"=0)

    This could simulate fueling (to a point as a visual only of smoke output..) for turbo diesel/gasoline vehicles which tend to run "rich" as LBF (low boost fueling.) on the low end is increased to help spool bigger aftermarket turbos etc etc and once boost is up the excess smoke (fuel) will decrease until the (smoke) is non existent.


    this is only a idea I thought of while fooling around with my engine mods, it would be a cool feature to have but I know some will disagree.

    Thanks.

    EDIT

    Changed title of thread.

    EDIT 2

    I see in a thread it was stated that smoke is dependent on engine load right now.

    Would it be possible to tie something like this and (below post) into that?

    Pretty much my thoughts exactly, except for throttle input needs to be a factor as well when you're running low/no boost. Yet somehow make it blend well with boost.

    Crude Example:
    Throttle ===> Particulates
    0.1 ===> 0
    0.25 ===> 0.02
    0.50 ===> 0.2
    0.75 ===> 0.5
    1.0 ===> 1.2

    Then, some formula that can blend boost and throttle.

    that would be even better "blend" those together.

    Wish I could give some fancy formula that'd make that work, but I'm sure the devs could easily work that out.
