I am not an expert but I think it's recommend after a blown engine. I think some residue can get into it. But might want to do some research

Marble cake oil is an indicator of water getting into the oil. Another vote for head gasket. That said, chocolate swirl oil is a lot better that metal flake.

If the engine just blew then intercooler should be good, If when the engine blew the turbo compressor failed then the parts of the compressor would contaminate the intercooler. What exactly failed on your engine?

When I first started running the car after installing the new motor, I was loosing coolant. Turns out, there were three hoses that were either missing clamps or the clamps were not tightened down enough, causing coolant drips. The aftermarket radiator cap I had was also not sealing correctly, allowing coolant to bypass it. I havent run the car much since addressing these leaks, so I am honestly not sure if the coolant level is still dropping.

Spun a bearing. Turbo was sent off to Precision to get refreshed. They found no major issues with the turbo, so they replaced all the replaceables and sent it back.

**UPDATE**
Took my car to an engine shop and they believe that under boost pressure, I am floating the heads, causing coolant to enter the combustion chamber, leading to the white smoke. They are going to upgrade the head gasket and install ARP head studs. The verdict seems logical. Anyone else have experience with such an occurrence? |

Not personally, but you're not the first to report receiving that diagnosis.
