It's all the blow-by oil coming from the PCV pipe that leads from the top of your rocker-cover to the turbo... It's well documented.. Putting an in-line Oil Catch Can if the fix.. Forefront Industries does a kit for this..

Click to expand... you pressurize the sump and oil gets blown all the engine seals and turbo. result is one big mess and ton of smoke out the back. fit a catch can and catch the oil.
