smoking under boost

I have a problem with my car smoking while under boost, the smoke is white and it leaves a white cloud depending how long is kept under boost. The car has a new gt 45 single turbo, have installed a forced performance oil restrictor that seem to work but the problem persist. Engine is strong runs great idles fine even under boost it pulls strong just that it smokes. PLEASE HELP!!!

My old turbos were not smoking, not sure but people are telling me that is my turbo, but that turbo started smoking since day one. I know what you are saying that when this turbos are new they tend to smoke a bit. I think is that it has to much oil press going trough the turbo. I could be wrong but I am trying what makes sense first before braking down and reman the turbo.
