Burning oil problem

So I have a burning oil problem I did a compression test the other day and they were 135 140 135 145 so I don't think it is my rings. I checked my intercooler piping on the intake side and it was clean and it only seems to do it on start up and idea is they anything you guys can suggest I do before I take it to a shop

Bad valve stem seals? Maybe your pushing oil through a sticking pcv valve from the crank case?

I would look at the pcv system first since you can probably work on it yourself. Check the simple or easy stuff first.

I'm at about 77k and I'm pretty sure the stock turbo would I just take the turbo off to check if it's the seal
