Default oil is going into my intake since i got turbo

i had my turbo for about 3 weeks and it was working fine but now i have oil going into my intake coming from the breather hose on my valve cover and the same hose from the vavle cover is putting out pressure. my car was'nt smoking at 1st but now its smoking very bad out the exhaust. did i blow my rings, have a bad valve or what? if someone can help me please let me know a.s.a.p. thanks.

If smoke is coming out from your breather hose, that means your getting a lot of blow by. and you have smoke coming out from the exhaust.

sounds like ring lands or piston rings are shot.

Do you have a greddy turbo kit?

another way to check, run your car at idle, and pull out your dipstick, and see if smoke comes out of it...

do a leakdown test..

do a quick compression test. the kit cost like 20 bucks at sears or at your local auto parts store

blow by..
either you snapped a ring or crak a ring lands..
I'd do a leak down right away..you can still drive it around, just stay off boost..

I am having the same problem. I did a compression and leakdown. I got about 5% on all cylinders for the leakdown and roughly 175 in the compression on 7-8 full motor revolutions.
I decided it was my valve seals and did them yesterday. Man, what a bitch to do. 10 hours later and im still blowing smoke--less than before though.
During the install of the seals I used the leakdown tester to hold psi in the cylinder so the valves wouldnt drop. I head the air escaping and it was coming from the oil return holes down to the pan. So basically Im going to need to replace my pistons and/or rings soon. Sucks....
