Message	Is this a proper way to diagnose a turbo seal leak...? This vehicle I'm working on is puttin smoke out when boosting about .8+ bar on stockers. I ruled out rings because it can rev at 4k+ rpm without smoking and also doesn't always smoke. I want to rule out valve seals since I can hit 5k+ rpm and let off the gas and no smoke will come out...at least not like when I'm boosting. I'm iffy since the vehicle smoked when I started it up...but that could have been possibly due to not letting the oil burn off after I boosted and made the problem occur.
