okay looked under the car again and it looks like theres oil leaking out my charge pipes that connect to the turbo. As far as the smoke i don't know how to explain it it's like a blueish. can anyone tell me what the different colors of smoke and what they mean ie. white, black, blue. there's only a little bit of smoke when i'm driving. I noticed when i was on the highway that it's when i let go of the throttle for a sec and then get back on it that a big puff of smoke comes out and then it goes back to being a little bit. Also when i come to a stop it seems like it smokes a lot and then goes back to a little. Also took out my plugs and looked at them they were all white on the tips. Maybe this information is a little more helpful. Also is it hard to replace the seals in the turbo. Hope someone can help me.

Oil in intake, white (ash) plugs, and blows the most when coming off fullthrottle/shifts...... compressor seals.

Time to hit the junkyard.... :P

i know i'm going to sound like a retard, but what are compressor seals and how much do they usually run, and how easy are they to install.

Your compressor side turbo center section seals.
For the $$$, I would just get another Junkyard turbo.

They should sell JY turbos by the 20pack, at the rate some of us 'smoke' em down...
