Ok here is the story!
I baught my car from BC drove it back to Saskatchewan
and on the way home the turbo blew and was puffing white smoke! I figured that the time that the water cooling for the bearing housing was simply leaking into my exhaust! But now i have a t04 turbo in my car and it is still doing it! and i am not sure where it is comming from some people told me that it might be because of running lean well how do I fix this? Is there a way! I know that i need a new ECU and am saving up for it until then i cannot drive my car until i get the smoke fixed! COPS RAINED ON MY PARADE!!!!
Any help would be really apreciated!

well
There is a T04 exhaust wheel witha t04 compressor wheel and a machined stock exhaust turbo housing! so essentially it is a t04!
I have a greddy turbo timer!
K&N cold air intake
as far as i know that is it! I have only owned the car for about two weeks and drove it for a few days! after the turbo was installed!
anything else that you need to know to help me out?

IT is a stock exhaust with no cats! NONE!
and the turbo with totally upgraded except the stock exhaust housing was machined and blueprinted to fit the T04 Exhaust wheel!

stock exhaust, with no cats, like you gutted them?
or the stock catback with a down and midpipe?
Also, a little test that RETed posted in one thread a while back i think it was him,
IN neutral rev the eng, up to 4500 rpm for about 20 sec, and if you get smoke its internal.
if not, but only while your in boost like going down the road you get smoke its your turbo,
My turbo does it real bad... so im upgrading to a japspec s5 turbo, then comes the hybrid.

not a hundred percent sure of that, it did work on my car, but no car is the same, and this test did not come from me. so i don't know what rules it abides by, catch RETed when he is on here and pm him, He knows a hell of a lot more than me.
