umm... wouldn't running without a water pump completely toast your engine? I had smoke from the same area, but it was the coupler on the y-pipe to intercooler being loose and leaking a small amount of oil out on the turbo, or it could've been the pre-cat. my solution was new coupler and clamp, along with a DP.

Have enver run the car with out the water pump ( I ment to say smog pump )working.. I'll post a photo of the turbos for everyone to see. The problem is I smell the coolent. I see the wisp of steam but cant find the source.
I have some mods just didnt place them in my sig.
I like people to think my car is stock as its fun to have a sleeper.
Be safe
