Over-fueling makes horrendous amounts of smoke, for sure. However,
unless there is a pressure driven regulator (or the fuel injection
system is set to deliver way too much fuel), simply adding a turbo to
a NA engine results in only a small increase in power output. The
increase in efficiency is small with just one atmosphere (15 psi or
so) of added intake pressure.
To get more power with turbo boost it is necessary to increase the
fuel delivery along with the added air, and this requires a ALDA or
pressure compensated injection system of some sort (mechanical or
electrical).
Otherwise, adding fuel beyond the oxygen capacity of the intake
charge results in LESS power due to suppressed combustion and LOTS of
smoke, usually followed shortly by engine failure due to diluted oil
and usually burned exhaust valves from injection fuel with them open.
One of the stupid kids in my local area had a huge exhaust pipe stuck
through the floor of the bed of his pickup, and overfueled it to the
point that it looked like a coal fired battleship at full speed.
Only lasted a few months, thank heaves, the smoke was unbelievable!
