Default quick question

ive fitted a new turbo to my s2 today,previous turbo was knackered and old intercooler had loads oil in it.
i fitted new turbo and a brand new front mount intercooler today,but the exhaust obviously still has oil in it as wen i put my foot down it smokes,do i have to just wait for the oil to burn off or is there anyway of clearing the oil out of the exhaust? cheers

Just burn it off as your doing mate,aside from removing the exhaust and physically cleaning it out there's no real option.

Good blast down a dual carriageway will sort it!!!

Setup should sort that,should feel a bit quicker in this cold weather due to more dense air?I'm sure they'll sort it.
