Question about exhaust smoke

I post in the canadian forum, cause im from canada..anyways.. I have a heavily modified JDM RX7...thats besides the point.. when i'm driving around say from home to work..After i drive for one mile and i come to a complete stop..a big puff of smoke comes out the exhaust..not blue smoke..just a puff of white...any one know why the cause of that is?

i dont check this forum much..so a email would be best

it helped. but unlike all their problems mine is fine at start up, and only blows a little puff of white when i come to a stop at say a red light or a stop sign. It just hits me w/ this puff of smoke then goes away.

Turbo, right?
Most likely it's oil.
Try and pull the intercooler - look in the pipes.
Do you see it wet with oil?
The turbo is dying...
