Default Smoke coming out of exhaust

What could this be? Drove out for an errand came home timer counting down before shut off. I see smoke coming from the exhaust. The TT kit is about 3k miles on it. I did not stomp on it.

When it shut off. I started it again, rev'd it a few times and no smoke what so ever coming out of the exhaust. What could it be????

TT kit? Does the turbo have an oil restrictor?

What color was the smoke?

White smoke is coolant.. So hopefully not that.

the turbo is oil cooled. drove it again today, opened it up a few times and nothing. Pulled back into the driveway and no smoke at all. Just smells rich in fumes. No leaks what so ever.
