Just a little paranoid...

So my car is Finally running!!! after 3 months of working on it, and starting out as a FMIC, to going Non-Seq, to adding a Fuel pump and then to PFC, its finally all running fine. I had Jason at RX7store put a map on it for everything i have.
The only problem i seem to have is when i went to start it up for the first time with everything correct, my engine was flooded. So i deflooded it and did everything i was supposed to. I put 2 stroke oil in there, i could of put too much but im not sure.
Little background: when i went non seq i had very little shaft play in the turbos themselves and were looking good. They boost to 7 psi just fine and even still has creep with a ported wastegate to 1.3" Put everything back together. perfect no leaks nothing.
I go to see how the car feels at 7psi under wot and when i let off i literally smoked out the entire highway lol. It was black smoke or really white smoke, it was Grey. And i could smell oil. Now its done this the past couple times ive boosted. It seems to be getting less and less, but still for about 1-2 minutes it will smoke after boost, and have a little backfire when i give it some more gas. then it stops.

Now could it be oil in the ic pipes. bad PCV valve - (i tested and could not blow through one end of it). Bad seals on turbos? or just an excess amount of oil in the system still?

Updates mods- FUll non-seq, Full exhaust, PFC, Walbro 255, Intake, FMIC, upgraded silicone lines for the ones that are left , map loaded to pfc for mods.

no one has an answer....

well here is some new evidence... my coolant seems to be getting lower and lower if i go under boost. but that is the only time? i believe that is what is causing the smoke but no idea where to start
