ok, my car was just recently turbo'd, and today i took it out and there is white smoke coming off the manifold, it almost looks like its leaking out of the manifold,,,, also when i let off the pedal from heavy acceleration a big puff of white smoke pours out the exauhst what would be causing this???

It sounds like coolant to me too. A big oil leak would not result in smoke coming out the exhuast, it would just burn off and smoke in the engine bay. If it is a headgasket leak, then the way you would fix it is to get a new headgasket and have some fun
 . But i would run more tests first to see if it is actually the headgasket that is the problem. You could try compression testing your engine to see if theres a leak.
