I'm getting some smoke coming from my exhaust. I took a look under the car and it seems as if my seals are leaking. If you run your car hard like I do at relative boost levels, your seals may be going bad. Just a thought. If your car doesnt have alot of mileage and doesn't run my boost levels, it may be another issue.

To which seals are you referring? I think I may be having this issue too. Getting a slight smoke out of the exhaust. Compression checked fine. Thanks!
