3.2 did gen3 2006 140,000km black smoke...aai...

Hi guys.
Wondering if anyone can shed some light on this situation.
This is my second gen3, 3.2 so I know them quite well.
My pajero, Julius (because no hole is deep enough not to climb out of) had his turbo redone rather well in June here in Cape Town...the old one had a leak on the waste gate so the whole thing was completely reconditioned.
I've checked boost, when the vehicle is floored it jumps to 1,2 bar instantly but immediately drops down to about 0,8 bar which I believe is correct....at 3000rpm under load Julius starts smoking big Cuban cigars and the vehicles behind me because in a cloud of nasty sticky diesel fumes...
The vehicle has zero error codes. I've reset the ecu and driven close on 400km in various conditions, towing, not towing etc...it runs like silk...even when under load..however the black smoke is frieking me out....
I'm going to be undertaking the installation of an egt and boost gauge within the next 7 days so I can see more clearly?
Anyone got any ideas...This is puzzling me...why would it be over fuelling...? It runs as smooth as silk in all conditions, fuel consumption almost identical to the last pajero...which I lovingly owned for four years to stupidly sell it and buy an amarok (yugg devil's seed never again)...no strange idling, or starting issue or anything at all...no power loss...just black smoke...I took the egr system off and cleaned that completely...still smoke...maybe I should just blank egr?
Any advice please...
