problems with 997.2 exhaust

My base 3.6 997.2 smokes heavily under hard acceleration. Under normal driving it is fine but if I nail the pedal and the rpms rise a huge plume of smoke is spewed by my exhaust. This cannot possibly be normal. My 07' did not do this. Can anyone else let me know if this is happening to them? Any ideas what this could be?

I think he just got it wrong. And since it's an '09 and he says it's a 997.2 it doesn't sound like a TT either.
