So first about the car, it's a twin turbo setup with GT35r turbos and the exhaust has no crossover, so basically each exhaust pipe is directly related to each bank/turbo.

The problem
After I do a pull, as soon as I let off it blows a pretty big cloud of smoke from the passengers side pipe, so obviously it's something directly related to either that banks turbo or engine. Could a bad turbo seal cause that? Oil drain problem? Anyone have any insite? Thanks

Yes,they are ball bearing, liquid cooled. I'm not sure about the restrictor to be honest, I bought the car with the kit installed. I can tell you the return lines go straight down into the pan. The turbos are mounted up high so it's just a gravity drain.

The Precision BB turbos have a built-in restrictor/orifice of sorts. But I'm not sure about those Garretts.
