1997 Saab 9000 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 200K miles

I own a 1997/98 SAAB Aero 9000 turbo charge. Notice in the past two weeks, during idle speed blue smoke emits from tail pipe, it's spuratic. Notice that when using my turbo, a loud "whinning" sound can be heard, but only when turbo kicks in. Car runs excellent, but smoking appears to be getting worse. Mileage is approximately 2007 K. Can you advise?
