Clutch slipping causing turbo to smoke?
I can drive my car normal and it doesnt smoke, even in low boost, but when i get on it and the clutch starts slipping (new one going in tomorrow) it smokes, then i can drive it normal or let it idle for a few minutes, and then drive it and it doesnt smoke until the clutch starts slipping again.
The smoke is oil burning, the BOV is blowing oil, and the turbo is brand new. The oil return line is not pinched, and I am running an oil restrictor.
Is it possible that when the load gets taken off the motor real quick and the motor revs (clutch slipping), it causes it to burn oil somehow?
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Re: Clutch slipping causing turbo to smoke? (ej8)
I'm puttng the clutch in tomorrow and ive got an extra turbine seal just incase, but would that cause it to dump oil in the intake?
