More Mazda Voodoo. My car is extremely "moody" these days and for the life of me I can't figure out why!

Cool

My turbo lets out huge white clouds sometimes when I cold start, but only when it's really cold. It smells like barbeque, so I figure it's fuel getting dumped or something. Point is, it goes away and car runs fine so don't panic yet. Can't say what it is though.
