Blue Smoke

Test drove the Truck today after the injector cup and injector o-rings install. While giving it some peddel after shifiting i would see a puff of black smoke(80T Tune) than after the turbo would chatch up it would turn blueish. Should I just drive it and see if it clears up or could it be my turbo?

It should clear up. Mine took 10-15 miles after the injector install for the smoke to clear completely.

I've had terrible smoke as far as 30 or 40 miles after major work... then it just cleared up.
