White smoke!! only when i punch it??
i was driving the other day, and i jumped on it, and my buddy was behind me and he told me, white smoke was coming out, i dont think it s a blowin head gasket, cause my oil and coolant are fine, plus there is no HP loss.. any ideas? my car does heat up easly but its only cause my radiator is shot and hoses are bad.. my car is a 97 camaro z28 a4. only mod CAI..

white smoke is usually only due to water.... which would be your cooling system.
if it was greyish smoke (which can be mistaken for white) I would say check the PCV system. Might be an overpressure in the crank case causing excessive blowby to enter the intake.
