Hey guys I’ve been stage 2 ( Custom ECU TEK, catless downpipe, Upgraded turbo inlet+charge pipes) for about 3 weeks now did two track days and about 5000km my car has developed an issue where it randomly smokes blue only at idle for a couple seconds then goes away , I blew my charge pipe and noticed there was oil in it , car does not smoke under boost and no oil consumption for now any ideas? I’ve been reading on catch cans but apparently some still have this issue

Blue smoke = oil. I am willing to be your turbo is on its way out…… ?
Same thing happened to me when my turbo was going out. It will just get worse and worse and the oil will start to burn more…

Just keep an eye on your oil level. If your turbo start making weird noises, then it’s definitely time. Don’t want your motor sucking any turbo debris.

What do you mean by "State 2" - which typically means nothing. An OTS tune?

But definitely sounds like the turbo is a goner.
sorry stage 2 ECU TEK custom tune with catless down pipe and upgraded charge pipes and Turbo inlet stock intake box, Yea it seems like thats the case but if it was the turbo would it not smoke under load or boost ? it only does it at idle and its random its just one puff of smoke and it doesnt do it again
