smoke = oil = bad valve seals most likely

Smoke (especially white) on acceleration with no oil consumption and no coolant hoses leak but losing anti-freeze = the classic worn out turbo seals or turbo coolant pipe connection. I know from personel experience. Or a very small possiblity is bad head gasket (but that is usually smoke all the time).

yea,depends on what smoke u have.If it is white then luv2rallye is very right.If it is grey-blue (more blue then grey) then it is what I said.
Usualy turbo cars smoke a bit while in hard accseleration after usualy 4-5 K RPMs wich is normal but since u said there is a lot of it then I gess it isthe valve seals or rings.Check compresion on each cilindar and if it is good then it is valve seals mostlikely.Another good thing is "OIL CATCHCAN" a very good upgrade for turbo cars.
U asked if it is expencive to change "valve seals" ,well It all depends on how u wana do it.If u bring whole car to machine shop and they have to take the head down and then put it back on will be more expencive then if u take head off by urself and then bring it to shope.If u selfremoving the head and bring it to shop and let them recondition the whole head to OE, it'll most likely be around 300 $.
There is also option that is way cheaper but U have to have nice place to work on,tools and defenetly some experiance.Ofcourse we talking about seals only.In ur case I would take head off myself and bring it to shop and get it machined and ported a aall around.It is worth it.

yea its leaking antifreeze but no oil consuption n it seems like its only leaking when turbo is at full boost and high rpms if i drive normal then engine dont smoke at all but if i do drive hard which im not no more untill i figure out problem thats when it starts to smoke but thanks ill check both and hopefully problem will b cured
