i'm not totally sure but I might suspect a couple of things. 1st- i'm blowing a lot of oil out from different places like the back of the intake, valve covers. 2nd- it only seems to be bad when I get out of the throttle after making boost. normal driving doesn't seem to cause the problem, or at least as bad. 3rd- i've seen boost numbers decreacing.
I have the pcv set up like procharger says to running a line from the valve cove to a tee that goes to the pcv valve then over by the air filter. the engine doen't smoke or burn oil under boost, only when I get off the throttle. any help would be great.

if its anything like my issues on my original build the rings were not withstanding boost and pushing the vc gaskets out and the smoke was only when i let off or prolonged throttle like mile+ when the oil would just leak thru the vc gaskets and onto the headers. if you dont have the money for a rebuild, i did away with the pcv and installed 2 breathers on the vc's with the evac kit, problem solved.

How much boost, which blower, which blow off valve? Too small of a blow off valve can cause that as well as too restrictive of exhaust. If you still have cats, suspect them.
