changed turbo...more smoke...urgent help needed

[tomgt106]

hey guys losing the enthusiasm for my GT pretty quick lol

previous turbo was on the car and was smoking after a warm idle a fair amount..

so decided to change it as i plan to sell it soon anyway..

and i put the other turbo on yesterday and its smoking more but its not smoking on idle really maybe a small amount but it smokes when im driving along and lift off the throttle, then put my foot down again it puffs out a big puff of whitish/blue smoke..

now i know blue and white smoke doesnt sound great but i did use alot of exhaust sealent on the manifold, decat and turbo housing and also sprayed alot of wd40 around that area..

just wondered if this would make it smoke or it is another turbo seal gone lol

any help will be great...cheers

Well if it was the wd40 it would burn off after a couple of drives

could it be valve stem seals ?

it could be oil in your pipes and intercooler from last time.

Sounds like turbo oil seals to me

Why arnt you using gaskets as opposed to sealant?

Do you know the condition of turbo you fitted? was it second hand?
