So,
i believe my head gasket is blown
When i let off the gas anytime after accelerating
my car blows white smoke out pretty bad.


Whats done to my car

GT28RS60 turbo internally gated to 12 pounds

STOCK motor, STOCK clutch, no internal work(yeah i know i am pushing this motor..i am pretty sure i am over 260HP)

the exhaust smells like regualr exhaust smoke, but i am not sure what burning cooltant smells like.

think so?

 

pure white, or blue-ish white?

coolant Vs oil.

i'd bet oil.

 

white

i know what burning oil smells like
my last turbo blew lol


granted i will rev my car up after school and blow some smoke out, but from what i have heard and seen from many people it is white smoke

 

exactly .. annnnnddd if it was headgasket wouldnt it blow more smoke when you're on the gas lol

 

are you running coolant lines to that disco potato?

2 things...

bad turbo = puff of smoke after shift or while decel
turbo leaking coolant = white smoke during high vaccum (decel, shift)

look into your turbo, if it was your headgasket it would smoke all the time...

 

plus with a blown head gasket more then likely you would overheat and have a huge cloud of white smoke behind you...i blew mine in my mustang not fun =/

 

agree if you blew your head gasket it would smoke all the time and if it...aghhhh i just agree with everyone on this haha check your turbo

 

well

i just went out for a run
and everytime i shifted, hard on gas it puffed whiteish can't really tell seeing as it is so far away.

**** you turbo, **** you

 

me thinks you're starving the turbo of oil... look to use something else for your oil feed

 

stop driving it and get a rebuild kit asap... before you need a new center section...

 

Did you buy the turbo from garrett brand new? There should be a year waranty no?

 

yep!

 

If its burning coolant, your coolant tank should be low... If its not, that not it.

 

anyone put in consideration piston rings.
people keep telling me that
i will explain what happens again

i will get on, any throttle, unless i really dont hit boost or high vacuum or any rpm below 2500.
WHEN I SHIFT and put it in the next gear and hit the gas, a puff of blue smoke comes out..

i am hoping not internal stuff
by the way i just got rid of the turbo my car is up on stands right now...

 

piston rings on the stock 2.2 are NOT made for boost. i wouldnt be suprised if you blew one (or several). check your coolant and check your oil. one of them should be low...thatll answer your question of what you're burning

 

my oil is already drained my coolant is kinda low...

will there be oil in my coolant? or mixed or wahtever you wanna say

 

the coolant will seperate from the oil , give it some time to settle in the drqain pan and then take a look, or pour it into a jug/container you can see into.

 

so did you ever do a compression or leakdown test? it will answer all your questions in 20 min...

 

stole the words out of my mouth. why do people like guessing so much? why not do some tests and figure out what's wrong?
