When its boosting alot. If i cruise it no smoke comes out
its the turbo i bet it has in out play[DOUBLEPOST=1416333554][/DOUBLEPOST]I hate to sound like a jerk but judging by the bolt for that manifold and looking at the weld at the flange looks to be an ebay header and im wondering if that turbo is genuine or not

Does the turbo have any play in the shaft
 
Only if you have supporting mods for a 20g! If not it's pointless bro! I would just find a good 14b, rebuild and call it a day! ;)


Hes right, I just came into a 2g gst and the guy before me put a 20g turbo and bigger injectors, air filter and ported intake. And it runs like crap. Needs dsmLink or evo 8 ecu swap to run correctly... I think :hmm: im very new to boosted cars and dsm.
 
White smoke is caused from leaking oil into the exhaust.

As the oil leaks it burns white at low temperatures when it starts to heat up and turns bluish when it gets hotter. That's the reason u don't see smoke on startup.
My t25 did this .

People don't realize oil burns white before it turns blue
