White smoke (coolant issue??)
Okay so I'm driving a 1990 integra boosted with a b18a1 running 6psi.
i notice that when I'm under full boost and the car hits around 5500rpm i puff white smoke out the exhaust. White smoke i know is coolant so i was thinking possibly turbo seals are gone? ( I plan on swapping the turbo out for another setup over the winter so thats not a concern for me ) Although i did notice on long drives that the car would start to overheat when driving at 130-140 km/h, could this be an issue with the white smoke?
If anyone could help me out that would be great, thanks!

white smoke can also be oil, when looking out the mirror.... could be a ton of diffrent stuff... Seals on a turbo would make it smoke more then just at a certain rpm
Could be
Valve seals
oil rings
