Smokey when turbo kicks in!!

[chris]

Hi all, i bought my first bravo 100 TD sx today. Upon driving home the 75 miles i noticed that she seems to kick out a little smoke when the turbo kicks in, is this normal for fiat engines?

Normal. Even new diesel cars smoke a bit when they hit the gas.

its normal. caused by slight overfueling that has to happen prior to boost coming in from the turbo.
