mine smoked very lightly on idle when it was warm, that being said there were days when it was good (didnt smoke) and days when it was bad (smoked every set of lights). most commonly at a set of lights you could just see a woft of smoke pass your review mirrors, very embarrassing. never smoked on accell, never smoke on cold start, only on idle after a drive. kicking its ass or driving it soft didnt change a thing.
did VSS's, did turbos, still had same problem. bypassed drivers side oil breather, still did it. this drove me nuts for ages and i ran out of things to do. then car came off road fitted set of custom twin dumps and new exhaust, pulled ALL intercooler plumbing off and i mean everything including alloys, rubber and plastic piping off. it ALL got degreased (there was a thin film of oil in most of it) then i washed it with warm soapy water and a high pressure cleaner.
its been back on the road for a few months now, its since been on dynos, 25 laps around wanners and countless thrashing and im so f*cking relieved to say i have not had one hint of smoke since.
if you were to ask me what fixed it, i couldnt tell you because i carried out multiple tasks to help the problem.
if i had to guess i would say the twin dumps did it. i dont know why cause the turbos were rebuilt with steel wheels ages ago when it was still smoking, so seals should have been new.
anyway im just happy its gone.
oh and boost has jumped from 10.5psi to 13.5psi and its still sweet.
