Re: turbo question

Well smoking is usually these things: pcv valve, valve stem seals, turbo, too high of oil pressure and possibly a few more things. That is if you don't have any external leaks. So I would start with checking those things. Start with easiest/cheapest first.

heads practically brand new, if anything my car has low oil pressure, might be a little from the pcv.

the vast majority of my oil burning before I put this turbo in was from my rings. when you look in the cylinders through the spark plug holes all the tops of my pistons are wet.

but it's a ton worse since I put in this turbo
