On boost my celica is smoking, its a white / grey smoke, and after a hard boost my car has a nice sweet smell ? I'm guessing my turbo seals have gone, but wouldn't the smoke be blue ?
My car is consuming abit of oil too which pushes me to believe the turbo seals have gone.
Any opinions ?

A slight sweet smell is usually coolant. Also light colour smoke is often coolant too.

Oil smoke colour varies slightly depending on where its burning, I.E. if its a turbo seal will be a bit more blue then if it gets burned in the engine.
