ON Blue smoke?

help me find this problem guys !

Car starts perfect checked oil, coolant went for boost
car drives idles fine went for drive on the highway.. when i hit 1 bar boost jumps up n down car dosen't pull nice parked and see blue smokes, first turbo spools fine but it's hesitating after 0.8~ i can see on my boost gauge it's going up n down on 1 bar car feels weak.

Next day i thought it could be turbo since i see blue smokes, replaced turbo to another set car runs exactly same.. still with blue smokes, i think it could be stupid reason or oil seals side seals? it's been couple days car idles perfect when i start.. -71~- -73 on boost controller.
car had pretty good compression 2 weeks ago it was tuned has fully rebuilt motor with street port 20,000 miles on it , help me out guys!

Remove the UIM and make sure the oil metering hoses are connected.
If not connected, oil can run down the side of the motor and seep through the gasket into the intake. You can probably guess how I know this.

Also make sure that the check valves are working correctly. There are some threads on this topic if you search a bit.

My resolution: remove all of the oil metering components, block the holes and use Idemitsu premix.

This may or may not be the problem, but after I did some searching on it I found the oil metering system issues to be fairly common.

Have you added more premix since you gassed up that night? Remember I told you to try stopping the premix to see if the smoking would go away? Why don't you fix the OMP? Stop driving the car without intake filters before you hurt the motor.

The car runs exactly egual as much as the oil leak, 1st turbo spools better after 4,000 still spools but hesatating... less blue smokes pulls better, after 7 hours 2nd set of used twins after 4,000rpm turbo dosen't spools car shakes more blue smokes much more oil leaked on my drive way, i passed that stage on the day when we filled up and went for drive together that was prolly my last 2cycle in there it's only fuel now..i'll try new turbo or install your 3 rotor since it fits in my car :P lol

If your car is running like crap:

STOP BOOSTING!

If you're unable to determine the issue take it to one of the approved rotary shops listed in the Canadian Forum. It's much cheaper to pay a pro than to blow up your motor.
