It boosts fine still drives great and somewhat goes away while driving (i had a friend follow me to see if it was all the time) and it doesnt smoke while driving or boosting.

So im thinking that my turbos might be leaking a bit cause after checking my plugs they look fine. has anyone else experienced this? what do you guys think?

Sounds like a bad PCV if you still have one. I had a car do this exact same thing, would only smoke at idle and when you let off the throttle after getting into boost. Deleted the PCV and the problem went away. If you still have you PCV just remove you oil filler cap and drive the car and see if the smoke goes away, that will let you know if it is the PCV or not.
