Default Boosted B16a, Blue smoke out exhaust

Setup is

Stock B16a
Silver Surver [60-1] Turbo
Precision Intercooler
Tial Wg+Bov.

Problem is, I am burning oil out the tail pipe....
Could it be because i need a oil restrictor on the turbo?
Or
Are my rings done?

relax, breathe.
look in the cold side of the turbo for oil.

look at the hot side of the turbo for oil.

does the car run ok?
no?
then:
compression and leak down.

what line size are you running. -3 can live w/o a restrictor. -4 needs one.

For 6psi you don't need more then heatrange 6, at least it has nothing to do with your current problem. For that kind of HP they are fine if you are not running damn agressive timing on high cr. &gt; 10:1

first make a leakdown and compression test and see from where your oil is coming, if your rings are gone, you don't need to spend any time in tuning your afr because you have to rebuild anyway, so you can do a good tuning with your rebuild block.

if everything is fine, first make your afr's clean, mybe thats allready your breakup problem in some rpm's. And check your ignition timing, maybe it has a reason why your rings are gone (it could be possible that it is just of the age of your engine) but if not, i guess you have a tuning problem or just very bad luck.
