Oil smoke on startup, lots of oil in exhaust/turbo manifold...

I had the the same issue, it turned out to be a sticking ABV, the valve opens in two stages...it was sticking and opening late. I figured it was oil goo blown out when the old turbos were going bad. Anyway a new ABV and vac line fixed it.

update ....the new blowoff valve stopped the smoke for awhile or maybe it had nothing to do with it at , the smoke came back and I have since installed a mazda re-manufactured engine.
