I've got my set-up ('87 wagon w/ OM603, #17 head with oblique injection, 3.5 liter IP) running very well. Almost no smoke at all on hard acceleration, even from a stop. When I adjust the RPM setting, I'll lean the ALDA another 1/4 turn in, and I expect that last bit of smoking will be eliminated.

One thing that helped quite a bit was adjusting the turbo boost back up to spec (~13 psi). Have you tested the boost to see if that is correct?
