Anyone else notice a very brief bit of smoke on cold start? I can’t confirm color...tried but can’t. It’s very brief and very quick after start. I doubt it’s valve seals...oil in intake from pvc?
 
Possibly but I’m not certain. Couple videos from youtube have the same type occurrence and it seems to be a heavier type. I’m thinking it’s oil making its way into the head off the valves getting washed with oil vopor from the pvc system, or byproduct of oil in the inlet at the turbos.

can you smell it? youd know if it was oil.
 
It is rich on startup. You can smell it yes. It’s common on this car to find oil infront of the turbos so I’m hoping it is that and not valve seals
