   as above how long does it usually take to clear oil out of the exhaust system? Obviously ran the turbo the other week but had to much oil going in but thats sorted now with new restricted line, still smoking a bit but no way near as bad as before.
   
   How long does it usually take to burn off all the oil in the exhaust? No big issue really if I have mullered the turbo as I have a spare I can use but need to know the above before I go changng stuff

   You probably mullered the seals running it without a restrictor in the oil feed!
