Default Smoke help!!!!!

Can anyone advise me on a problem intermittantly on start up i get a bluey/grey smoke for about 10-15 seconds then it goes i've got no miss firing or strange noises but recently i have been getting blue smoke on high boost i.e pulling from 60mph up and on hard acceleration

I have changed the turbo as the old one was worn and nearly shot could it be the wrong oil being used i'm using 10w 40 magnatec semi-synthetic could this be the problem or a breather blocked if so ow do i ceck the breathers

anyone help!!!

cheers
