Check your compression. Where does your Crank Case Breather Vent to? If it goes back into your intake that's your problem! HRC Kit's do that. Get a Catch Can if your compression is good.

Bad seal on the compressor side of the turbocharger. That's my guess

don't drive it, the motor will lock up. I know someone that had a turbo oil leak.
