I'm slowly getting all the little crap taken care of. I still need to build a scoop for my intercooler since I mounted it horizontally and I need to get my meth kit working again. I also want to change out the wastegate spring so I can start cranking up the boost (would like to run 14psi at the track), and take it to a dyno and spend a couple hours on the tune. I'll probably wait till it cools down a little bit for some track runs, which should give me plenty of time to get the rest of that stuff taken care of.
I did get my new BOV installed, I really like the TiAL 50mm unit that I'm running now.
Just got off the phone with JGS too, ordered my wastegate spring

The smoking is very intermittent now. I will notice it maybe once every 3-4 days or so, must be a certain set of circumstances that makes it happen.
After about 800 miles I have not noticed a drop in the oil level, so it seems to be an insignificant amount that is being burned.
