needle valve on the oil inlet?

your smoke is causedd by one of these.

- Oil psi too high at inlet
- oil return too small/restricted
- Turbo Seals blown

also, could be more then just 1 of those.

wouldn't a needle valve make more pressure?, and is there a temporary fix for a blown seal, until I get a new turbo?

I dont know how the needle valves works but people have been using them to lower psi. I think because it restricts the amount of oil that goes by maybe not the psi.

I just think that the psi isnt too high its the amount of oil thats too high.
