something has gone wrong and need some advice
noticed the other day that when i start the car the was a small puff of smoke a blue/grey colour for a few seconds.
I drove to mk and put my foot down to join from the slip road the boost pressure went up to .94 when its set at .80 max come off the accelerator at full revs and got another discharge of smoke for a good ten seconds.
got into mk and noticed smoke creeping out of the bonnett just a coupke of times for about a second each time pulled up into a space and popped the bonnett let the timer countdown till it switch off the saw a flame pop up from below the turbo which was just a little flash. looked around the engine bay and seen some oil on the elbow that is bolted to the inlet manifold.
any help would be great thanks

I had smoke from that area whne i popped a hose from the IC - the oil mist inside the intake had pooled and was creeping out, landing on the mani, and burning off.

hi stocky. it could be oil leaking from 1 off the oil lines that go to the turbos and dripping down
