Default smokey old diesel

Has anyone ever been driving at night and noticed a fair amount of smoke under normal acceleration? I was driving in traffic last night and could see a lot of smoke coming out in the cars headlights behind me

under WOT about 13psi. but it hazes under normal acceleration when its not building any boost I dont think its the fuel either, its always done this. could it be because the IP is turned up? it is getting a lot of fuel
