Default Swapped Turbo Blowing White Smoke! Need Help!!!

Well last nite, I had my buddy (who is a mechanic and owns his own shop) swap my T3/T4B with a T3/T4E ball bearing and now I got white smoke blowing out of the exhaust. I have no clue what the problem is. Seals maybe. It did not do this before we swapped out the turbo's. All oil lines are connected and no leaks that I can see. We changed the turbo manifold, turbo, and modified the downpipe and that is it. Turbo I bought used and am waiting to hear back from the guy I bought it from. Just need some input from you guys. Anybody had this happen to them.

white smoke would mean youre burning coolant man. if it was oil it would be blue smoke.

coolant seems fine, not black, nice and green and full. I know that my fuel maps are slightly crossed but has been like that for a while and car runs rich.
