Default do i have blown something?

hi,

i have a short question, evety time i hit boost (maximum is 8psi) my car smells like **** from burned oil.

maybe its the turbo because of black particles at the rear bumper but if the turbo burns all oil why can i smell it?

my thought was, maybe i have blown a piston ring or something and now have extrem blowby and because i have no catch tank at the valve cover i can smell everything?!

i have also very less power at the moment...

but the engine fells ok, no funny noises or bad running engine or something... everything is fine, only the power is gone ;-) i think the best would be to make a compression test to see or what do you think?

Thanks
Malte.

Could be rings or turbo seals turbo drain clogged, or the PCV isnt working as well in the upper RPM.s Do a compression and leak down and post the number so we can help a little more.
