    I had this on mine and it turned out to be the boost hose was hanging off of the intercooler. It had the whistling noise and smoked a lot!!

    Check intercooler hoses as mentioned and also intecooler if hoses are ok.Look for signs of oil around cooler for possible signs of a hole/split in it.Black smoke is overfuelling due to insufficient quantity or air.
