Default need help with smoking

I installed a restrictor on the oil feed and drilled it out to 1/8", and the cars drives around fine no smoke, but sometimes after a wot pass it smokes out the exhaust when i come to a stop, i noticed one time i left a little clould when i first floored it, do u think its a drain problem or a turbo seal..

Wut do u think about the size of the oil restrictor, should i go smaller or is it too small as it is...btw i have the ls4 oil pump which i was told is a high volume oil pump, i see around 60 + oil psi at wot

i was thinking about stacking another t4 flange under my turbo to get a little extra height, you think this is a good idea
