Last summer my car would smoke when it was warm and idleing, then it would stop when i gave it some gas. I also had a fair amount of oil in my intercooler piping and bov. I didn't have the symptoms of a blown headgasket and i still don't. So i replaced my turbo with a t28. I was happy for a while because the problem stopped for a couple of months.

Just the other day i was driving around beating on my car pretty bad when i started to smell burnt oil..So i stopped beating on it, but i didn't really think much of it i just figured it was someone elses car. When i got back to work and was letting it cool off. I noticed after letting it idle for about 2 mins it started smoking really bad(white/blue smoke smelled like oil) When i revved it up it went away. So i shut it off. It has only done this about 3 times in the last 2 weeks.

I checked my pcv and it is in working order. So far there is no oil built up in the bov. I am wondering if i possibly messed up another turbo or if i am getting oil from somewhere else??

I have searched this several times and all i get is people saying it is a bad headgasket, and both my oil and coolant look fine(no mixing what so ever)
