Default VERy STrange, turbo smokes, now it stops

This turbo that I bought, it smoked...lots of purple smoke. I left the car idling for a while, at least 2-3 mins to see if the smoke would go away. It didn't... So i figured the seals blew on it. So I left my car at home for 2 days, not driving it. Today I decided to just start it up for the heck of it and there is no longer any smoke, whats up with that??

Umm... think of it as a blessing. ~shrugs~ I would still find out why it was originally blowing out smoke.

Is your oil return line crimped? How much oil pressure do you get on start up, maybe you have too much.
