FP Red BB

I have installed a FP Red BB on my 9. Unfortunately its burning oil. I know it is the turbo burning oil because I pulled the plugs and they look fine also did a compression test and read 140 on all 4. The red came with the head to turbo oil feed line with the inline filter. So that is what I used. Has anyone else had this problem? Am I just going to have to live with the smoke?

Yea. what are you running for crank case ventilation? There is a whole thread on this stickied at the top of this sub-forum, the title is along the lines of "for anyone having crank case pressure issues"..

I'm still on the stock setup for ventilation I'm not sure it's crankcase pressure though because I took the oil cap off when idling and after 2 mins of idle it was still smoking

My car smoked very lightly at idle, very light whisps, but billowed smoke when lifting from WOT. After upgrading the driver side to 10an, and the PCV to 6an and getting the car to idle, the turbo no longer smokes.
