black smoke when gasing it and letting off = common in all dsm turbo cars. They burn oil and that is where its most likely coming from. I know mine used to have a nice puff of black smoke come out. It really isnt much to worry about.

everytime though? but the white smoke like they said is because of the gasket like they said right?
