could be a buncha reasons. maybe your oil return isn't straight down and it's backing up into the turbo. or maybe the turbo is bad/seals are bad and it's leaking oil

is the car tuned? if not there is your problem, the injectors are putting so much fuel in that it gets very rich and starts smoking, hell when i first put the dsm's in my lsvtec it smoked like hell but it was also tuned for allmotor on the ls injectors.

If your return line isn't clogged or kinked it's more than likely the turbo. Are you running a restrictor on the turbo? it happen to a buddy of mine. turned out the turbo was blown.

Take your downpipe bolts loose and look in it for evidence of oil seepage in the bend, to confirm whether or not it may be bad seals in the turbo. Like stated above, it could be a number of things, but that's the first thing I would check, to eliminate that cause.
What size is your oil feed line, and are you running a restrictor? And what turbo?
