Been there done that...turbo seals.

But tell us a bit more about the white smoke.

Does it appear about 20sec after idling?

When you drive? In boost? In lag?

Does it smell like burning oil?

:?: :?: :?:

I can confirm the smoking during idling. Don't notice during boost or lag, but would this problem create (more) lag?

Great that means your turbo seals are cooked.

Look at a nice expensive recon or just go get yourself a nice t28.

I don't think it will have more lag...(as far as I can remember on my car...Ask VC or Gary's opinion on that) But driving with a smoke machine is not fun!
