OK guys, ive got a problem that just started last week. WHen i get on it (full throttle at higher RPM) my car seems to have smoke coming out of the tailpipe. I cant really tell what color it is cause its hard to tell from the rear view mirror. I mostly see it when people are close behind me and their headlights are right there. I did a search and found that it may be oil or coolant getting in there. My oil and coolant levels are fine. Im gonna try to set up a compression test this weekend if i can. ANy other suggestions? The car pulls strong as ever.

Blue Smoke = Oil ...... White Smoke = Head Gasket

...if you really cant tell from the mirror then have someone follow you or drive by a friend or family member...
