Hi recently bought a mk1 3 mps upgraded from a 3 2.0 sport and an rx8. Already done timing chain and few other bits does have 104k on. Just have a quick question noticed car smokes on full throttle and I've already topped oil up no smoke on over run I'm thinking it will be turbo seals has 5w30 oil in as I serviced it about 2 week ago. Car is completely standard thanks.
