I am making this new thread for a friend of mine to help him out.

My friend's car is a 98 gst spyder auto.
He is having a little msoking problem. About a month or so ago he had the car taken to a shop where they changed his lifters to revised ones, along with that they were also going to change the valve seals and valve cover gasket but he's not sure they even changed the gaskets.
Point is, the car smokes bluish white after accelerating, in other words, when being accelerated it doesn't smoke, but after letting go of the gas it starts smoking a little and then eventually stops.
What can this probably be ? Any ideas ? thanks guys.
 
Damn really ? I thought a bad turbo would smoke all the time ?
Thanks for that input though i'll tell him.
