The G coupe has back seats, although you might have to walk the yellow brick road to actually fit in them

I realize this response is a bit late and off topic, but since it was posted here I wanted to follow up for anyone who runs into a similar issue. I had the exact same symptoms recently, though with more miles (23k, ~13k boosted). I suspected it was the PCV's, finally swapped mine today and sure enough the the ball inside the valve was stuck. With the new PCV's I haven't had any smoking issues at all.

Note: there were 2 other possibilities that I ruled out but should mention: 1.) Bad turbos, or turbo oil return not draining properly. 2.) Valve seals.

Hope this helps.

I am getting some fairly substantial blue smoke at times while driving the car. I assume by color and smell, that it is oil being burned. It seems to happen mostly when slowing down while in gear (i.e. while pulling a lot of vacuum) and seems to be more prevalent when the car is cold than warm, though today it happened after a quick jaunt in traffic with the car completely warmed up and very little boost. It's never happened when I start the car up, and it doesn't happen when the car idles. I also assume the amount of smoke may be a bit misleading due to the vacuum trap behind the car while it is moving causing it to build up.

I know to some extent, having no cats and such, I will get less refined exhaust gas. I have dealt with that before. However, I am concerned about the source of the oil being burnt. If it only happened when cold, I would think, maybe blowby as things warm up. But I am also curious whether I may have a bad turbo seal.

In any event, I was hoping to see whether anyone running TTs and no cats has similar experience. If not, then I may have an issue unique to my car. If so, then I may need to just consider some downstream cats and catch-cans.

Yep, had my PCVs swapped out as well and haven't had any smoking issues. The only concern is whether the PCVs are going to become a short-cycle wear item, or if we just got unlucky.

Should I be concerned? Tony has been driving my car to put some miles on it and has disappeared since! Think he gave up his GT-R for my monster? Not sure I would take that trade! ...wait...Yeah...I'll take that trade!
