Plumes of white smoke after MS installation

Head gasket failures arent really a common thing on miatas. you see many guys running turbo miatas with great power on stock gaskets and studs. take a picture of the smoke and post it for our entertainment............i mean evaluation.
If i am remembering right, you can pull one plug wire at a time while it is running and see if the smoke reduces. that could tell you which cylinder is presenting the problem. It has been so long since i have dealt with a head gasket i cant recall if that works or not. Im sure one of these guys will tell me im an idiot if i am wrong. Hell, they might tell me that even if i am right.

if you have an uncontrolled explosion or sudden pressure spike inside the cylinder at the wrong time, it will take out the hg and can even snap a rod
