Default Help or Advice

hey ppl i need some help or advice....i recently did some head work on my evo3 (port & polished head, 1mm oversize valves, 272 cams, springs and retainers), when the car was started for the first time it started smoking, when the car is driving there is no smoke but when it is idling it's horrible lots of smoke. my mechanic suspects that oil is getting into the turbo....does anyone have any experience with this or could offer some sort of advice

If oil is getting in the turbo at idle wouldnt it only get worse and blow more smoke with RPMs esspecailly driveing at normal speeds.

Have you had the car tuned for this head work? its possible your running way to rich at idle.
