I just finished installing a new set of seq, after double checking to see if everything was good, apart from one down pipe nut i couldn't quite torque properly (i was planning on taking it to a buddy's shop so that he could do it) i turn the car on. White smoke starts coming out of the exhaust and the engine bay, i figured the engine bay smoke must be from the down pipe. I let the car idle for a bit, i checked the initial temps and everything looks good, even the engine sounds good. But the exhaust sounds like there's a leak in it.

Here's the problem, i turn the car off and coolant starts overflowing out of my reservoir and the cap close to the intercooler. Does this seem like a coolant seal issue to you?

Could be a ton of things since you installed a new set of sequentials. You have a coolant line that is part of your turbos - this could very well be the culprit. Where did you get the turbos from?

hey man thanxs for your reply. I got the turbos from a member off the forums, the set looked to be in really good condition, i was careful when installing the twins i know i connected to the coolant lines as well as all the other lines. But i will double check. I'll also do the bubble test. Is there anything else that i could do to narrow down the list of problems? It surprised me that the coolant issue started almost immediately after i turned the car off. Has this happened to anyone before?
