Hey guys well i turn my car on and whiteish smoke comes out, and then at idle white smoke is coming out as well. Does this mean my turbo is gone. How can i check if my turbo is a goner?

Is there anyone here with a used t28 because i just need a used turbo not looking for a 16g or anything because i'm selling the car. Or if you any of you guys have a turbo that will fit let me know.
 
if you don't surface the head you may want to check for trueness as an MLS gasket really needs a flat mating surface to seal well. If you don't plan on running more then 25psi on that motor I'd just go for a composite factory gasket
 
Thats the thing im not running high boost at all i believe last time i checked it was only 12psi. Plus i just want to get it fixed so i can sell my car. Thanks wisemen for the advice i will be doing a compression test, but the link for the leak down test doesn't work....
