ok today i start my car let it warm up like every day. i start driving it and i pull hard in first and my car filles with smoke. my friend was behind me and he said it came from all over my car and none out of my exaust .i have no idea what the hell this is so then i look under my car and i have a leak from the oil return. i did forever so i wipe it off then i look at the turbo there is oil all over it under it on the wastegate the arm of the wastegate oil on the bottom of the intake. and it only smoke under boost at high rpms thanx guys what the hell is this
 
Sounds like its time for a new turbo. What kind of turbo are you running? If the turbo has been removed or the oil lines removed latley then the threads may be crossed alowing oil to pass through and squirt on the exhaust manifold.
 
all the smoke was coming out of every but the exuast so i think iit is the oil return line with a crack in it cause onlly when i hit bosst and high rpm it smokes any onther help on what it coud be thanx.
 
if the leak is major and you can not find the exact place it is leaking from, try a dye test in the oil. Clean the motor up as much as you can,(doesnt have to be spotless) then add the dye run the car for a few min and check for leaks under black light. If you know somone who is a mechanic this will be much easier or if you can take your car to a mechanic you can trust they can do it for you so you can pin point the leak.
