Rotary Car Club - View Single Post - rebuild first start, CEL 5 and 25, smoke from turbo side

You are going to see a lot of smoke and steam from the turbo area of the engine bay on a new install. This is grease from your hands and any bolt lubricant burning off of the turbos. It is extremely common and should clear up within 30 mins of the car idling or within a 10 min drive if you take it around the block.
