white smoke
 

yeah well i just turboed my car but theres a ---- load of white smoke cooming out of the exhaust any ideas why??? oh and the turbo is freshly rebuilt

Re: white smoke
 

Your exhaust routed to the back of your car? If your opwn downpipe make sure its not the turbo smokin and it actually is coming out of the exhaust

If it is exhaust, you could have just a little problem or a BIG problem. Is it just on idle under no load? White or black? Whats it smell like? Water coming out with it?

Burning coolant?

My guess is fucked intake mani gasket on the passenger side and coolant is being burnt

Headgasket toasted more than likely. What motor, what setup?

Re: white smoke
 

yeah most likely it's the head of the engine, white smoke usually means anti-freeze burning in the combustion chamber

It doesnt look like its smoking that bad, I would just drive it. j/k.

what does you're coolant look like? any oil/gas in it? Keep tab's on you're oil/coolant levels.

ya im pretty sure your head is FUCKED.... :6

Re: white smoke
 

Easy enough to tell if it's a HG...do a compression test and then a leakdown. Or leave your radiator cap off and start the car and watch for bubbling...usually popped hg's bubble and spit out the water neck.
