Car smokes after running for about 20 mins and gets worse if u trash it, i wouldnt say its blue im not to sure on that but there is oil coming out the breather, also oil inside the intercooler pipes. compression test was done and they were all the same, i cant remember what they were but the guy said that it was good

So my question is, is this the rings/pistons or turbo.

And id rather it be the turbo then your rings, alot less hassel and money lol

Generally, if the turbo seals are gone the car will smoke while idling and driving. If your compression test show a minimum of 150PSI plus or minus 5 PSI per cylinder, then that would be ok, the higher the better. Need to know what the compression test figures were. When the valve stem seals were gone on my 4EFTE, the car smoked liked crazy. Also with the car smoking like this you will need to check your oil level very often. If the car is not losing power and driving and running normally it could be the valve stem seals.
