i have the same problem with my CT26 on my Supra. my problem is that i have bad oil seals on the turbo which leaks into the exhaust and burn = puff of smoke.
i hope you don't have that as well.
Good luck

pull of the piping for the turbo and take a look. otherwise, do a leakdown test.

valve stem seal cracked? or seals in the turbo? just a thought. see if there is oil in inter cooler piping.
