Check the pcv valve first.

Other wise, you have worn out rings and oil is getting by and burning under power.

Is this a turbo?

Yes but first, it could be the turbo burning the oil out. Have someone remove the hoses and see if there is any oil in the turbo. It may be just that

No oil should be visible inside the turbo hoses.
