I just bought another 6gen Celica with a turbo 5sfte engine. The car runs great other than the smoke (blue) that comes out between shifts (only under alot of boost). This morning i drove the car very easy without alot of boost and it did not smoke but later when i drove it and opened it up it started smoking really bad when i let of the gas to change gears, etc. I checked my PCV (con. hose only to see fluid) and it looked fine. Today i took the "U" IC pipe off the turbo and did not see any oil but tonight i took off part of the IC piping that goes to the intake and it has a bunch of oil in it...are my turbo seals bad or is the turbo bad? Any help would be great.
