Like was stated above, if the smoke is white it most likely burning coolant of from somewhere. Yes the head could be warped, you didn't have that checked when you did the head gasket? You could have a cracked cyclinder wall as well, anything is possible.

A little black smoke (rich) from a turbo car isn't always a bad thing, blue smoke is bad, and white smoke is definetly a bad bad thing.
