check to make sure your turbo hot side piping isnt near or touching your coolant lines. I had that problem with the smell and a week or so later I had a hole in one coolant line.. Good luck

I had the same problem a few months ago after I got my engin rebuilt...it turned out to be the smell of new thermal wrap burning in...do a search for "pancakes"
