Default Need help on new turbo build

I have an issue with it smoking at idle pretty good i vented the oil cap and have the catch can on it idk what to do the motor is new also just need ideas on venting it different or if anyone else has had the same issue. I thought it was the return line on the turbo fixed that it only smokes at idle and first start up pretty bad..

Have u driven it a lot without a tune? did this acutely happen? It could be an overflow of oil problem, but doubtful. Can u post pics of your drain? Is the motor stock? aka what is done to the motor.

no i got a base safe tune on it i fixed the return the motor has 300 miles on it. It only has a cam.. it does it pretty bad at first start up then continues to smoke after start up but driving it, it does fine. another issue is that i put a vent on the oil cap and vented the driver side but it smokes out of the oil cap and filter looks like it has oil soaked to it.. but idk just new to all of the turbo world..
