Hey installed a turbo xs type h bov, and a catch can and now i get a blueish white smoke out exhaust after and boost, or somewhat heavy acceleration. Anyone help diagnose what problem may be? Heres setup

-CATCH CAN is set up: Each valve cover has a 1/2 inch hose coming off which join at a "T" where the 3rd connector has a hose that connects to catch can inlet, the outlet goes out to accordian hose. Throttle body part is capped off.
-BOV: Attached to a pipe that replaces the (plastic)stock flat intercooler pipe, capped off 3000 pipe where stock bov conected, and capped off the accordian where stock BOV went down to.


Hopefully its not turbo going (stock turbo, with 167k+), but I never had this problem before install. So maybe something is cappedo ff that isnt supposed to be, or somethign needs to be? Anyone find out/fix my problem +1, but havent had any luck so far.
Heres pics i took same day after install (i rewired the catch can outlet so that hose going to throttle isnt there anymore)

it looks like your catch can is set up right.

there may be an obstruction some where. try taking out the catch can and putting the PCV system back to stock.

I come from a land down under
Might just be not enough flow/volume to cope with the blowby.

Mine blew the dipstick out on the dyno using the NA T piece so I changed it to bigger fittings and hoses no more auto eject dipstick.
(My old motor had blowby issues)

your catchcan configuration gives me a headache.
your vac line from your charcoal cannister us unplugged:icon_bigg

Haha yea me too, the vac. unplugged i noticed after the first time i noticed when i drove it. When i drove it the first time/trest drive i saw the blue smoke so pulled over after about 200 ft of driving and checked engine and saw that and plugged it on the purge where it belongs. Drove a good 20 miles since its been plugged on and its still doing it.

Hey I had the same problem with my 88t after i hooked up the catch can configuration, with heavy oil consumption. The only way I solved the problem was to remove the catch can set-up. If you solve the problem please post.

I took it out (Had hose going to catch can inlet going down to ground, and capped the hose going out to accordian) and the smoke went away. Put catch can back in and upgraded the hose size going to accordian from catch can from 3/8 to 1/2 inch. First minute smoke significantly less than before but still smoking. On way back home there wasnt any smoke at all. If i get any more smoke im going to upgrade the hose going to inlet as well since upgrading the hose coming from catch can outlet helped a bit.
