SMOKE......TURBO or HEADGASKET

When I start me Saab in the morning and It's stone cold let it idle for 4 or 5 min there is no smoke.
After sitting 10 or 15 min. after being driven and hot there is a small amount of smoke. If I then let it idle for 4 or 5 min and bring it to 3 or 4K RPM a lot of smoke. Interestingly I drove it 160 miles this weekend and before turning it off let it idle for 4 or 5 min. twice and no smoke. No sign of bubbles in expansion tank. Car runs fine and turbo comes on to red. I'm stumped. How do I determine what it is? Many thanks for your help and suggestions.
