ok me and my friend just replaced his head gasket and torqed it down but its still blowing a shizz load of smoke, so we thought the turbo well that was blown too so we replaced it and its still smoking like a bi*** dont know what to check next
 
If you have any type of fluid still in the cylinders (hopefully not) or in the head ports or anything then the car may smoke for a while.

What color of smoke?
Was the head checked out by a machine shop?
 
Have you even checked anything to see if those were the problems? What color was the smoke? Did the turbo has and in-out shaft play? Did the oil have coolant in it? Did you run a compression test? We need some information other than you just started throwing parts at a car that you haven't diagnosed yet.
 
yes it was checked and the smoke is like a thick white with a little blue tint and we have ran it for at least 45 minutes and the smoke doesnt clear

has good compression, smoke is really thick and white with a very small tint of blue
