Hi,

 

I noticed that there is a little puff of smoke when I really floor it. The Tubs sound fine, and there is no problem with boost. I smelt the exhausts, one side smells fine but the drivers side smelt a little of sort of burning. What do you think, turbo on the way out or ring/rings. Or hopefully neither...

check oil level is correct

 

then check the pcv systym make sure both valves are working correctly and the hoses are not clogged,this will just cause general crankcase buildup,resulting in oil going back in to the intake,do a search on pcv for how to etc

 

turbos are getting on 15years old so it may be that the seals etc are on there way out,but check the simple options first then go from there
