OK! I did a complete engine rebuild on my 91 turbo AWD Talon. Engine was running fine until I over boosted and blew the head gasket, blew the front balance shaft seal and blew the upper coolant hose off the radiator.

I had the head checked & resurfaced. Installed new cometic head gasket, new front balance shaft seal, and new radiator. Ran it for 20 min and flushed engine oil, refilled with new oil and it will run but it is burning oil, white smoke and I noticed oil in exhaust.

What could be wrong now and how can it be fixed?

I am very pissed, could cry! PLEASE HELP! I have over $6000 in this car and am at a point of no return, but seriously thinking on parting this freaking car.

Thank You in advance for any HELP!!!!
 
Could it be the turbo?? I'd check for shaft play and see what shape it's in. Also, just to make sure the HG is sealing, maybe do a compression test.
