It could be the turbo. The talon I just bought blew white smoke like a son of a loose girl and I thought head gasket also. As it had great compression, I played a hunch and it turned out to be the turbo. Does the car boost well??? My Talon didn't.

hey its more than likely the valve seals....they get a bit leaky and oil pools up in the cylinders. then it burns off when you give her some gas. it goes away very quickly, correct?

there is lots of smoke when the car is at idle. when its sitting at idle for about 10 minutes, it starts to smoke, when you rev it a bit it goes away.

Nevermind the colour of the smoke...
I think it's your valve seals.
I had the same issue with my last DSM.

Valvoline Maxlife oil seemed to help a bit.
