could be ERG Could be coking in the turbo causing the vains and unsion ring sticking. Do you have problems starting when cold?

you also could have a hose on the Hot side of the turbo busted open check all blue hoses , that would also cause smoke and poor proformance. Check both the hot side and cold side of the CAC tubes. ESP on the black plastic tubes on the driverside. down under the air filter assy, where the according crinkle section is, there bad to get holes there also.
