I bought a 1993 eagle talon TSI and it was blowing big blue clouds out the exauhst so I have replaced the tubo with a used low milage one from a local wrecking yard that looked to be in good condition but now it's still blowing mass amounts of oil into my intake what am I doing wrong? What else could it be?

Hi there,

Your 2nd hand turbo may have a failed shaft seal, and the oil is being drawn into the induction this way. best have the turbo o/hauled.
