Weird whirring and lots more smoke

well over the last couple months my truck has started to smoke less and less, thats with my extreme race tune from IDP, today i was cruising on the freeway in traffic and i stepped on the throttle a bit and when it shifted a HUGE clous came out of the exhaust, covered the entire freeway, first time i didnt think anything of it, then it did it 2 more times, then i got to work truck sat for about 3 hours then when i left there was a LOUD whirring noise coming from the turbo, not a whistle but like it may be leaking or rubbing or something, any help is appreciated i can't have the truck down.

You said it sounds like it is rubbing? What is your boost levels? Pull the intake tube off of the turbo inlet and see what kinda play you have on the wheel. Sounds like you may have popped a turbo which would explain the big cloud because you were fueling it but had low boost. JJ

Check all your IC boots also!
