I left one other important variable out: altitude. The higher the altitude the thinner the air. A turbo increases the density of the air and the DDEC tries to make adjustment for altitude also (but only adjusts when the engine drops back to near idle). However, even with the turbo and the DDEC, 2-stroke DD's smoke more at higher altitudes. Nature of the beast.

Without DDEC and a turbo, you will get ALOT more smoke at higher altitudes.
