    New turbos can smoke, as well as old ones.
    But no turbo should smoke without it being ran to hell or used for a long period of time.
    IF it did, it's a piece of crap turbo or obviously you had a problem with something else other than your turbo(amt of psi, intclr,etc).
    Do some research on turbos and buy a new one that you're pretty confident in.
    Noone wants to ride a horse with a once broken leg, right??

    I was about to say the same thing. Ive had NEW turbos that started leaking out the seals on the first dyno session.
