Default turbo or oil restrictor??

i recently installed a turbo kit on my car. i havent driven it yet because its not tuned but when i give it gas when its in netural the car smokes a cloud(blue), but it does not smoke at idle. the turbo has no shaft play and before i bought it i didnt see oil anywhere on the turbo...do you think an oil restrictor will resolve my issues or am i going to need a rebuild?

thanks

i had the same problem when i got my turbo...didn't have money to rebuild it so what i did was i got a jet from a nitrous kit and put it in the oil feed line on the turbo...no more smoke...and it's been 4000 miles and no problems with the turbo...
