Is the car stock?  With fuel injection?  Stock exhaust?
 This can be caused by an over rich condition with the fuel igniting in
the exhaust..  There was some debate a while back about exhaust leaks
"drawing" fresh air into the exhaust causing this problem also...  So,
look for an over rich mixture.  Or an exhaust leak.  Or both....
