Hi guys,
So ive got the white smoke dilemma at 38XXXkms on an 05 6 MPS... Through hours of pouring through forum info, I put my white smoke issue down to obvious turbo causes. I decided to ring Allstar Tuning at Brendale. Spoke to a guy there for 20 mins about this issue. He immediately said that he would supply and fit a newer (by the sounds Gen 2?) turbo for $2265, since he believes the turbo seals to be screwed since the white smoke only occurs on idle.
I mentioned the idea of a slightly better after market (since an after market turbo seems to be the same price for a this newer turbo ($1600)) and he said something about the core of a good stock with after market to be built or something of the likes to fit up to the manifold.
I dont know whether im jumping the gun or need to assess the situation a bit better. Can any of you turbo nuts please enlighten this turbo noob. Any recommendations for a second opinion?
Newer stock vs aftermarket?
Cheers,
Sam
