Blue smoke on acceleration
My brother in law's truck had a new egr and oil cooler last week. Now after idling for a couple of minutes, and then accelerating, it will leave about a 25 foot trail of blue smoke. Any suggestions?

Any codes? Any sluggishness or other performance issues?
It could be oil being burned but it also could be insufficient fuel.
Things like loose or plugged injectors, worn or leaking injector o-rings, or as you mentioned the turbo oil seal (oil consumption). Also PCM inputs such as MAP, ICP sensors, etc. can cause smoke that can look blueish.
