Head Gasket or Turbo?

Look who's "Saabing" now! Yesterday was a beautiful Fall Sunday so we had "Blue" out tooling around the Smokies when she started blowing thick white smoke out the exhaust pipe. Oil wasn't low when it started and we haven't noticed any leaks. We kept a good check on the oil level and added 3-4 quarts on the 75 mile ride home. She doesn't have the power she usually has. I drove her a few miles to the repair this morning and told my mechanic I'd check in with you guys and see what you thought. His first guess was the turbo but I noticed on here where I believe John Myers wrote that blue smoke is turbo and white is likely a head gasket. Anybody got any recommendations or advice before I proceed? Where to get the best parts for the best price would be helpful as well . . . Thanks all you loyal Saabers!
