There isnt an exhaust side PCV valve, theres only one one the intake, the exhaust side is purely vacuum into the intake side.

Piston rings are barely run in at 68,000 miles (if that is indeed the true mileage), engines go to 250,000 miles without issue.

 

yes this is the true mileage of the car, i had the car checked out the mileage it was registered in japan, and the mileage it had in japan in 2010, 2008, ect. and the mileage is true on the car. I was afraid of it having rolled back mileage but it doesnt. Its just i am noob, so i cannot understand why im getting oil in my air box, besides the turbo seals i cannot find any other resonable explenation. which i doubt turbo seals go this quickly at only 68 000 miles

Because quite simply blue smoke is NOT condensation. It's a sure sign of a leaking oil seal or similar and in this case it truly does seem like the valve stem seals are the probably cause.

 

You dont need to explain this to me im quite confident that condensation is completely different to smoke lmao.

 

The post has been changed now but thats why I quoted what the op said origonaly "Its mainly just condensation smoke". Made me laugh thats why I quoted it following another thread when Dunk said condensation and smoke are completely different when someone had smoke issues and I said prehaps he means condensation (which turns out it was). Alot of people quite clearly think its the same thing which the other thread and post #28 obviously proves this....

i went today and took off the intercooler pipe, and took a pic of the charge pipe, and what was inside the intercooler pipe. I see it is very minimal oil, before this video the car was boosted pretty hard, and i see there is very minimal engine oil in the charge pipe, which i read is perfectly normal? and i also snapped a picture of what is inside my air box. u can see the oil has piled up at the bottom. let me know

also im using CASTROl EDGE 10W-30 Fully Synthetic motor oil, the motor oil on my dip stick is cleaner than the one i found in my air box.
