I figured it out
hey you can do the CCV mod (remove the vapors from the intake and route them outside)...guzzle http://guzzle.rbmicro.com/ccv1.html does a good writeup on it
WAIT a minuet that is not what you are talking about...you are taking about the coating on the exhaust pipes. i am not sure how long that will take to burn off or if it is even what is causing the smoke...sorry
But that mod is one to look into i hope to find time to do it soon, and Guzzle's site is full of great info
Sorry just found these

If you are talking about blue smoke, and a coating of oil in the inside of your EXHAUST pipe, then your turbocharger is passing oil. If you are mechanically adept, you can rebuild it yourself like i did. However i guess you should begin looking on ebay for a rebuilt or new turbo. I have seen several nice ones on eBay recently. Good Luck.
