smoke under boost
So lately I've been getting a grey/white smoke under boost only in 2nd and 3rd gear early when I first get on it....
It's a short lived smoke but I'm just making sure I'm not going to go boom

A puff of grey/black smoke is normal its just a little extra fuel
If its white/blue/grey and last very long time to start diagnostic sessions

I just noticed it at lunch, but on my way to work etc no issues boosted full and strong no odd noises etc etc..... I guess I can try and get a video tomorrow before work and see if that helps diagnostics

U sure it's white? Cause white smoke from coolant is like cloud white. Ur probably paranoid and just seeing the normal smoke between shifts and getting on it. Ur a/f ratio changes at shifts it will go rich for a second, plus other things happening. Temps may be cooler outside than normal which is why u see it. I doubt there is an issue. But make a video of u driving in the conditions u said. Maybe get a second person to record it from outside as u drive by
