White oil smoke and lots of it!!! Sometimes it also has a sickly sweet smell to it. The smoke can come from either boost or liftoff, with a quick physical check of the turbo not always showing signs of wear in the shaft.
Agree with Norbie on the BLack smoke-running rich issue too! Pull your sensors (ie idle bypass, fuel enrichment, ...) check that they aren't gummed up and seized, if they are try a good form of carbie cleaner (I only try to use CRC - they carry more active ingredient)to clean them. If you're running an AFM, this could also be the culprit, with the spring needing more tension too.
