Today a friend (co-worker) informed me that there is bluish smoke coming out my exhaust. I checked the oil and maybe I was just panicking but it looked low, got home tonight dumped 1.5 quarts in did a seafoam through the intake manifold. Found out I have exhaust manifold leaks, did a quick run, came back from a hard run and now it looks like I overfilled her.

anyways main point I need a new turbo and exhaust manifold,

Is this even worth my time?
 
From personal experience of mistakenly buying one of these a few years back, YES IT IS COMPLETE TRASH, JUNK, GARBAGE, etc.. Turbo only lasted about 200 miles then boom white smoke everywhere. Get a real MHI turbo if you want a 16g.
