If you look at his post carefully he says its not white smoke but blackish.
Blackish means your running rich

Ok, since you just hijack the thread then Glex is right, Black smock is indicative of running rich in your car. Do you have any Wideband A/F gauge? do you know how rich you are running? If you are close to DE then try http://www.carv2.com/site/index.cfm they have done some nice build and some great tune on our car, also if you want to travel a little north then MRC will be your next bet.

yes i know i stole the thread im sorry, but i figured i could just post on this one if i had a question with the same topic rather than make a new thread with the same questions...

thanks for the info on the shops ill look into them and see about getting a tune so i can get rid of this smoking issue and wont have to resort to stealing anymore threads..

So you don't have any Wideband or any gauges? With a Turbo you have to have a Wideband and boost gauge as a bare minimum.
