Blueish..whitish smoke...
#24
Wouldn't it smoke all the time though? It only seems to do it when I initially give it some gas, like leaving a red light or stop sign..and even then it's only a puff...that's it. It still boosts fine and all too...if that would have anything to do with it...

When you step on the gas and the exhaust blows smoke (especially white/blue) chances are you could have a blown piston seal becuase the oil pressure/ vaccum is forcing the oil into the cylinder.
If it smokes when you left off the gas it's a good chance you have a bad valve stem seal and the vaccum sucks oil into the cylinder from the head.
hope that helps
