    well that was obviously your car trying to kill you by suffocating you with a cloud of toxic fumes for being a retard on a public highway and going 140. Hopefully next time it will kill you, but nobody else. Other people shouldn't have to pay for your bullshit.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    If its oil it could be rings, turbo, or your return line off the turbo not doing its job.

    Like stated above, what color was the smoke? Could be lots of things. BTW for future reference, dont boost the fuck out of your car without checking your oil first. Good way to 1, burn a turbo up and cause massive amounts of smoke, or 2 the more important one, lock up your motor. Routine maintenance and checks are your friend.

    You may need an oil catch can setup. Or you may need to change your oil. Oil breaks down from heat and heat is generated during periods of long acceleration. You may want to go to the dragstrip. My speedo shows 145 every good pass(even though I am trapping 130). That way you can drive as fast as it will possibly go without endangering anyone else. Good luck.

    Good advice to check into also. You definitely need to cure that pronto if that is the case. You do not want oil making it's way onto a red hot turbo manifold.
