Did you buy this turbo brand new?
Garrett's are Notorious for having their seals go bad very quickly

Surprisingly, I bought it used against my better judgment, but I've had it on for almost 30k and this was the first thing that went bad.

i thought that if there's only little oil in your charge pipe then thats normal for turbo cars thats the intercooler pipe right. because there's for mine i can't see the oil but you can tell that it's kinda moisture of oil in the intercooler piping.

Not that i know of.
When the inner seals on your turbo go bad, the oil goes into your intercooler and charge pipes, bov, and can lead into you intake manifold as well. Once it does that then you're fucked

There wasn't just a little bit. I saw a nice cloud of brown mist when I shifted 2nd to 3rd. Of course, I immediately pulled over and had my cousin come pick up the car, and it hasn't been started since. I'm currently in Iraq and saving some money for an H22A4 swap.

Lol, thats like saying stock trannies are weak...when the same 700whp honda w/n00b driver has broken 10 in a row.
Use the turbo wrong, and **** happens. Hondas are known for high oil pressure, and w/o the proper restrictor, that will beat on your seals. Garretts are some of the most used turbos on Hondas, and Hondas are definately the most NA cars that get an aftermarket turbo (no provisions for low-pressure turbo oil supply). Coincidence?
I've used older turbos, but I run a restrictor. I've never seen oil in my pipes (aside from the wd40 I spray in initially), and definately not in my BOV. I kinda wish I did, since my greddy is starting to corrode inside from being so oil-free.
BTW 30k on a turbo isn't bad. Some of the new turbo Mazdas with turbos crap out at 10k
