My Car Is Blowing Smoke, Getting Worse

[smallman]

My car never used to blow smoke, then it started to a little bit when it was cold and would go away when it reached operating temp. Now its blowing white smoke when its cold and then when it gets to operating temp it will blow black, but not as much when its cold. I took my cooler piping off the front of my turbo off the other day and there is oil residue inside of it. Whats causing this? is it a common problem? stressing out a bit cause when my rb20 started blowing smoke i blew it up!

white smoke indicates coolant, black means fuel

as for the oiliness, its possibly from the PCV valve

mate i think u blow one of the headcaskets u need to take to a mech Asap it will cost too much to fix and when its fixed u will get more problems so my advice is to change the engine the cheaper alternative

White = Oil or coolant...

Could be anything. A slight amount of residue in the cooler pipes is fine, but any more than that would indicate a blown turbo.

Does it blow out alot of smoke when it hits boost?
