Does the stock BPT setup need an oil restrictor or is the metal feed line to the turbo already limiting the pressure?
I went from 10/30 mobil 1 extended performance oil to 20/50 and bought a new cheap pcv valve, then saw smoke. Especially after leaving my parking garage. (a little too much oil caused some backup while going down)
Now I am on 5/30 and initially some smoke but seems to be lessening.
Thoughts/suggestions
thanks

Re: oil burn restrictor
If this is an ebay turbo chances are you will need to restrict oil flow ALOT.
I even had to restrict it on a real garret turbo I had.
