Default White smoke only under full boost....?

So heres what happened, I have DSM 450s and I I cut the wires from my OBD 2 injectors, spliced them to the 450s and just had electrical tape holding them togethor.... I took the tape off and butt connected them togethor, went for a drive and now it blows white smoke every time I boost.... Perhaps I should solder the wires togethor??? Only thing I can think of

white is almost always the head gasket from my experience.
i would get a leakdown test run on your block and not drive it.

Are you running a resistor box?

Yeah lifting the head under boost and pushing coolant most likely.

Yeah it has a resistor box... Probably should have stated before, for some reason i dont know why, i put the hose from PVC hose from the intake mani and put it on over were the breather filter went. I totally forgot to take it off, i stopped driving and pulled it off and you could hear/feel massive pressure being pushed out when I removed the hose. It didnt start smoking at all until I messed with the injector wires

Could be the turbo. When oil burn in the exhaust, it burns white, when burned in the combustion chamber, its blue.

Thinkin its the turbo as well. Just a thought, if my injector wires wernt making a full.connectiom could that cause a cylinder to lean out and blow white smoke?

The reason why I dont think its the headgasket is simply this. I had the wires twisted togethor then had electrical tape wrapped all around them, it worked fine but I decided it was pretty ghetto. I took the tape off, used butt connectors to connect the wires, not sure why I put the PCV hose over the breather. When I drove, it created a lot of crankcase pressure and smoked at half throttle. I pulled over took the hose off, the smoke virually went away, now it slightly smoke only under full boost. Thats why I think something is wrong with the fuel injectors not the HG. Thats why I asked the above question about the wiring

Turbo or rings, sounds normal to me

Well I ran some seafoam through the motor and sucked it through a vacum hose connected to the intake mani, runs perfect again with no smoke what so ever... Anyone know what it could of been that seafoam would fix??
