car back together.....white smoke.blown turbo?

[dsm5150]

well i just finished putting it all back together and when i started it i get white smoke.i did take the turbo apart to port it,maybe its blown???other than that it runs great?

Is there a hint of blue smoke or is it pure white. Blue smoke (indicated oil in the cylinders) is often confused with white smoke (indicating water/coolant in the cylinders). Either way it's bad.

all white and smells like burnt oil.compression checks out great and there was zero smoke before the port job on the turbo.

before the porting of the turbo it had zero smoke.i took the exhaust housing off to port it.is there a chance that when putting it back together that i did something wrong to mess it up??

does it smell sweet or sour?

Sounds like your pushing coolant. Check your coolant level as well check your oil for any signs of "milk". Do not drive the car if its burning coolant. Headgasket.

That's a sure sign...

Are you running synthetic oil? That will burn with a greyish white smoke.
