It has nothing to do with oil being in the combustion chamber. Oil is usually somewhat present in the combustion chamber anyway due to PCV blowby. It in no way harms the motor or makes engine failure more likely.

i will be taking it apart in a couple days, i am almost 99% sure that this happened. cracked ring gland a while back and the motor still ran but had a loss of power, it was burning oil and probably just burnt up enough that the oil pick up didnt have enough to pick up and it had an oil starvation issue.
will have an update here for you soon

Ever hear of LAMB chops?I don't like to kill animals...... i just like to hurt them really bad.
Baby animals are so tender and delicious! Nothing like a good piece of milk fed veal!

4. Gcoupeturbo/ expired warranty/ seals went bad on the turbo/had it rebuilt after i went TT/20k miles/ blew my motor
5. 35Ounces replaced turbo under warranty which resolved issue for now - tapped block
6. redman333 / turbo lasted about 5k miles, returned the turbo and that lasted about 6k miles and I have smoke again / Oil drain tapped in upper oil pan with TN supplied line and fitting.
7. Onderground / Smokes soo much, 7k on it... only smoke when back pressure goes out, ( wastegate open.. .waaaaaaaaaa PSHIIIII and smoke ), do not smoke at idle. Never called TN, waiting for new GTK-550. ).
