its just a stock gsr engine..with intake and straight pipe. nothing else. but im kinda concerned with all the smoke puffs coming out the back.. only does it at high rpms especially when the vtech kicks in..i was thinking my piston rings could be going out??? but i just got the engine done like 2 months ago..

What ECU are you running?

thing is that it probably is your o2 sensor, unless you have already ruled that out.
I believe thats the #1 reason for a honda to run rich.

If you're going to run a P28 on a GSR, you need to have it tuned to match the fuel and spark requirements for the B18C1.
Otherwise, you need to find a P72 ECU.
That's why you're running rich, in my opinion.
