Smoking problem B18b-T
I just bought a 30k miles B18b. Put my turbo kit on it and went and tuned. We noticed I was having problems with my injectors so I had to get another set. Then I went back to tune again and found out that I was having a smoking problem at idle. I did a compression check and ran 170psi and over across the board. I also had my Turbo Rebuilt and upgraded to a 60 trim. So my only thought would be Bad Valve seals or guides. Well I had a extra head and I took it to the machine shop had everything check out. Got a new head gasket and swapped heads. Now my set up runs stronger but still smokes at Idle. Im burning Oil for sure. It smells like oil and is white. Im really stumped here and about to trash the whole project and start over. Do any of you have any idea's what it could be?

Re: Smoking problem B18b-T (fracas)
White smoke is more than likely coolant
If its smoking at idle and you just did the hg you sure you dont have a cracked sleeve
