sounds like the problems lie somewhere else. i would agree that it sounds more like turbo seals! Inspect these before you look to the motor for answers

Do a leakdown test. My compression was within 10psi in all 4 cylinders. Yet all 4 pistons had some type of ringland damage.

Re: (mrbsponge)
No oily smoke but with the cap off it does sound like it is pressurized. Is that normal? The turbo is new but i used an ssautochrome manifold and it make the return line long and flat in a spot so i think that might be my prob.
