Default burning oil/blow by

So got the new wastegates finishing the last side tomorrow and should be running again. But when I took it all apart it's Def burning oil. Looks like alittle is coming into the intake pipe. But when I pulled my elbows off the manifolds there was black burnt oil and even alittle in the wastegates. At idle it sort of has alittle white smoke but never thought anything of it thought it was mostly condensation and stuff from the exhaust going up and being aluminum. Drained the catch can wasn't a whole lot in it. But here's a pick of the set up

Do you have it plumbed back into the intake or boost pipes by any chance ? If so eliminate that ****

I would bet the lines from the valve covers are feeding into the turbo inlets. Basically the catch can is not doing a good job of separating the oil and its just flowing through it.

Yea that's what I'm thinking I have a filter built inside the catch can but guess that isn't enough. I'll try un hooking the lines to see how it does.

Engines that have to live with big power make a lot of blow by....just a fact of life until someone comes up with something better than piston rings.

It looks really good haha!

Some internal baffeling or filter media will help a lot.
