smoke while on 2step?

well i tested my 2-step the other day..and when i got to 5,500rpm my 2step started and i started letting out a lot of white smoke..it only does this on 2 step..

whenever im at 8k redline and full boost i get no smoke,only on 2step...

anyone know what it could be?car runs fine tho..

maybe its ok,im not sure,ive only tested my 2step maybe 4 times

thanks

Is the car new? You sure the smoke is white? White smoke usually means coolant, but when you're on the 2step you're dumping a lot of fuel and the smoke usually is more of a black color.

You already have head studs or I would say maybe headgasket if white smoke. You check the coolant lately to see if you have used any.

WHen i first got my 2 step the same thing happened to me. After about 6 or 7 times the white smoke went away. Its most likely coolant thats shooting out of a line somewhere maybe cause a line is loose or not clamped all the way. Check out all your coolant lines and also around ur head gasket like dbsear87 said.
