Problems
installed my turbocharger and car is running, but it is billowing white smoke out of the exhaust...also I keep getting the little wrench icon in the console...im thinkin the A/F ratio in the tune is off but I don't know how to change it. any help would be appreciated
That is an torque managment code. Now if you can find someone that knows what that means you are all set.
White smoke is usually antifreeze burning. Blue smoke is oil. Black smoke is rich.
But those are just guidelines.
Is it doing it all the time or only under hard accel? If you are blowing white smoke all the time, I am thinking you may have taken a head gasket out.

Some more info on your trouble code:
Internal Control Module Torque Calculation Performance
Description Indicates a calculation error occurred in the powertrain control module (PCM).
Possible Causes Unplugged motor, circuits shorted to voltage
TAC motor open, unplugged motor, circuits shorted to voltage
TAC motor stuck open or closed
Mass air flow (MAF) sensor concern
Throttle position (TP) sensor concern
Output shaft speed (OSS) sensor concern
Turbine shaft speed (TSS) sensor concern
Anti-lock brake system (ABS) concern
PCM damaged

email whoever you got your tune from and ask them if they disabled the torque management of left it enabled. That might be a place to start.
Hopefully your white smoke is just some residual antifreeze burning out of the exhaust and not an indication that you have blown a head gasket....or something worse. You should seriously consider finding a dyno shop somewhere that has experience with mod motors

i found the problem and fixed the problem...the turbo oil return was not clocked in the right position...now I have a bigger problem...I was ******* the car driving and blew my ****ing engine...i think its a piston or a rod or something because the engine runs, but smokes like a mother****er and I also hear a clanking noise...thats why I have a built shortblock on the way, but what a stupid move...I guess thats what I get for pushing around 460 rwhp / 9 psi on an undynoed and not custom tuned car...how ****ing stupid am I!
Well it sounds like you had plans of going to a stronger bottom end anyway. Shame you killed the engine though. You may have just ate a piston or melted a ring land, etc, etc. All fun side effects of too much boost with too little tuning.
Good luck. Post carnage pictures when you get the motor apart.
