why is there smoke coming from under my turbo?

my car is a 91 NA with a turbo on it. i was unflooding the engine, and did succesfully and a buddy stopped over to see the new ride. so i reved it up for him. the rubber boot that connects from the throttle body to the intercooler said poof... popped off. and i get out to check it and there is smoke coming from under my turbo. right under the oil feed line... what is my problem? please tell me its nothing major!

"right under the oil feed line..." is it loose?

What a dumbass...

You really should keep to trying to buy non-existant, unobtainable body kits that you cannot afford in your own thread.

You're no help in here.
