I know i probably brought these problems on my car my self but, id like to fix it. I searched for my smoke problem and its probably just the turbo. But my story goes like this.
I was showing my friend my car, took him for a ride. Acclerated pretty quickly, when i shifted from 1st to 2nd i heard a loud clunk noise. I drove it around and felt a power loss but the turbo still spooled okay i think. But it wont catch second anymore. The next day i drove around and noticed white smoke coming from the exhaust. It is only doing it every now and then. So im guess the turbo seals are just going out. (I did just put an exhaust manifold, taka lines, and 3in exhaust from the elbow out.) But its also harder to put into any gear. Im thinking the "TO" bearing is going bad. It still wont catch second like it used to either? Anybody else expreinced this problem? Ive already had to spend about a month trying to fix what the shop did when they put the motor in.
