Help full blown stage 1 turbo
Hello guys, I was on the freeway low boosting around 3000 rpms in 6th gear, and a ton load of smoke was coming out the exhaust, White smoke. So I checked the oil and the oil was fine. Than i checked lines and and any thing out of the ordinary . Everything looked fine . So I'm thinking the seal in the turbo went out . Do anybody have an idea of to what it is? So I can check . Also I park the car and rev it high a few times and it seemed fine.

White smoke is water. Are you low on coolant? How many miles on the kit?

Which Turbo?

White is usually coolant. Your Turbo shouldn't be coolant cooled, but even if it was the housing would have to be cracked for coolant to seep into the exhasut housing. I'd pop the radiator cap and see what the coolant looks like first. If it keeps running like crap or smoking, I'd do a compression/leakdown test if it were my own car for peace of mind

Thanks bro big help @spitfire481

Who did the tune?
|

that's either head gasket or a seal in the turbo's coolant line. Either way not awesome and you can't drive around like that.

It's the basemap from fbm @Reaper

@Whatabouteggs yeah it started for a bit and than it went away, I think it's kinda weird
