Problem SOLVED!!!
--Turns out to be another failed Coil-pack. I just replaced a pack last week and so I was too quick to rule that out. I replaced cylinder#4 and cylinder#1 went out in the process aparently... lame, but at least it's a quick fix!!! My pipping is all fine to the intercooler.

thanks for the help

why would a coilpack lead to "smoking/burning/fumes"

let me know how much pressure drop u get from running the fmic like that. i was worried about it like that due to all the extra piping. i had a big thread going about it, which is where u grabbed the image i imagine.

Also if you havent already, go ahead and replace the other coil packs jsut to be on the safe side. If something caused the other two to go bad then the others may be on their way too.

im going to say because the spark plugs not igniting the a/f mixture. That would be my guess.

But if you have a good seal the turbo shouldnt smoke, all that unburnt fuel would just go out the back of your exhaust, unless there is something that I am missing. I know turbos smoke when you put or spill stuff on them ie: oil, brake cleaner, WD-40 stuff like that. I dunno...
