what color is the smoke? white, blue, or black? if theres that much smoke id probably say your in for a new motor worst case, a head 2nd worst case, or third a head gasket. you could be burning oil as well but you didnt specify so thats the best i can do.sorry
 
Yea could be any of the above stated, mine ended up being the turbo was shot, could be rings, seals in the head, all depends on the description youll give, but thats my 2 cents, do you feel any loss of power?
 
This car didn't smoke at all till the kid replaced a blown turbo then he also smashed the return line but somehow half way fixed it

Also I'd say it isn't the motor because it only smokes when turbo begins to spool driving without turbo or idle there's non
 
well than it looks like you answered your own question. ill sell you my stock turbo. im looking into uprgrading right now but im low on cash. could work out for both of us.
 
oil seals in the turbo man, just get a rebuild kit and replace them it's not that difficult :) check your return line while the turbo is out though to see if it's kinked.
