my car smokes white smoke will idling and taking off from first. also when shifting gears, when you put your foot back on the gas, it smokes for a short while. it only does this when boosting so im assuming its my turbo. anyone who has had this problem, please give me some info on what and what not to do. how much will this cost to get fixed? any info is appreciated. thanks guys.

i checked the coolant today and there was none in the resevoir, so i filled that up properly and still got a TON of white smoke. my dad thinks it might be the head gasket. any other thoughts on this? could it be leaking/burning coolant? like the exhaust always smells hot, and the engine smells like burning somthing.
