sounds like your turbo is bad.... take of the intake pipe and see if you can move the compressor wheel! if its loose then you need a new turbo or get it rebuilt, if not then you have another problem... go check and post back up what you find!

im not sure if burning coolant would make it stall out but if its smoking white and its not the turbo then what else could it be besides a headgasket?

have you noticed your fluids being low? have you overheated it recently? do you have an EGT to go along with that turbo?

you are kinda confusing bro.
start from the beginning.
what are you running on your car?
what gauges do you have?
you do have DSMlink but it's not setup right?
and stop quoting yourself, and try to use a little better english. [no offense, but you are hard to understand]

try to use the edit button when you remember that you forgot to include something in a previous post. Also, try to keep the off topic stuff to the off topic thread. I dont what movie your talking about, but Johnny depp's latest movie is Secret Window.

so how did you set-up DSMlink to begin with? you must have some kind of laptop to do the tuning. or a friend. hook it up, get some logs and see what the problem is...

white smoke sounds like you need a better head gasket. I would use cometic or mr gasket works too.
