this is very clearly a failing turbo seal.
check the shaft play on your new black cause that is your problem

OK here's the big question - What oil did you use?

the simplest fix might be if you used silicon to seal the turbine return tube. silicon can squeeze into the opening and restrict oil return from turbo. it will blow right past turbine. simple fix. use factory gasket with no silicon.

The conclusion is......TURBO BLOWN.......its leaking and the shaft has excessive play.

Make sure the engine oil isn't contaminated with shaft bearing debris. View used oil in direct sunlight

I was going to ask what oil you were running until I read that it was Mobile 1 which FP doesn't recommend anyone running with their turbos.

I've seen this happen on two other cars blowing white smoke where it ended up being a blown FP due to crappy oil.

nothing is wrong with my pistons at all...compression test showed that....i just finished putting my stock turbo back on and omg no more smoke out the exhaust...kinda missed the lil fella anyways with the quick spool up...because fp doesnt like reccomend mobil 1 doesnt mean that its ****ty oil at all...fp just released that lubrication chart october 8th 2010, people have been running fp turbos for how long now and they now decided to officialy put this out??? its no fault of the driver/mechanic/owner of the car for running the regular oil...honestly its the first time i've ever heard of having to run a specific oil with a turbo...sorry but that lubrication chart should of been in the box when you purchased the turbo or something to warn the buyer/mechanic/owner/driver....

I think there's really nothing anyone could have done. The change was slipped in under our noses by the oil companies. But they were coercively forced to do this by recent legislation. Really sucks, 12 bucks a qt for good oil these days.
