Ok so i have just put together a custom kit and I got the car started and every thing but i noticed lots of white smoke comming right out of the turbo exhaust side it looked like.....and also coolant was leaking out of one of my inlets to the turbo anyways.....it could just be that the cooland was landing on the housing of the turbine and burning up, that explaining the smoke but it could also be something more serious. anyway i took of the turbo and when i cover the coolant inlet and blow in the outet it should be air tight right ? well when i do this it sounds like air is leaking out from behind the compressor wheel. so tell me please what should i do? can this be fixed ? thanks :dsm: if you need more info ill get it for you just ask
 
If i buy a rebuild kit could this be fixed? and also i take it thats its bad for my engine hence the smoking?:dsm:
