white smoke!

Hi all-my 91 9KT (auto/115k) has white smoke coming from the exhaust and underhood/interior vents. There isnt really a bad odor to it, and I cant find the source, but it begins shortly after startup. The turbo seems to be glowing red hot though (saw johns post last week but no real answers there). The underhood smoke is likely from the gasket at the manifold-there has been some noise there lately so likely a leak-and the rest is all in the exhaust. My car sat for about a year but we changed all the fluids and she starts right up. Any ideas on why the turbo is hot or what the smoke is? Would being overfilled with oil make her smoke? If thats all the smoke is then why is the turbo hot? Coolant level seems fine and none in the oil. She drives but with a LOT of smoke-the turbo seems to be ok but it surges like crazy and then hits cutoff (I know plugs usually fix this). Im really lost and haynes isnt much help on this one-hope you all might know what the deal is-thanks again-Andie
