Default Help with Oil and White Smoke

Hey,

So after i got my turbo in, i have been getting a lot of white smoke out of the exhaust, i did some searching and appears to be something wrong with the motor. I dont consume extra oil, consumtion is normal, my compression is 215/215/205/215 (Something like that). I cant seem to find the problem.

My questions

1. Will an oil catch can help?

2. Is it because of the Test Pipe?

3. I am running kinda of rich (10-11) at WOT, but it still smells like oil?

4. Why does smoke only come out some of the time and all the time?

5. If its my engine, what needs to be replaced/built?


Thanks for all your help

Oil has a very distinct smell, I would guess it is antifreeze.

antifreeze? i donno for sure but the common problem is probably head gasket?

did you lower the compression by adding the 3mm? if so did the shop install correctly?

Oil burns Blueish Grey, not white. Also how owuld anyone here know what needs to be re-built in your motor? If it is OIL it could be a lot of different things that went wrong.

Thanks for the help, its starting to sound more like a bad turbo, there is no headgasket and the smoke is definatly not black. Benjarmen thanks for that link it helped a lot.
