How you got the right oil? My piston rings went on mine quite badly, I took unscrewed the oil cap off and it shot off because of the crank pressure, then I did a compression test

If the seals on the turbo have gone you will have oil in the intercooler, whip the intercooler off and look, if oil is present thats the problem. When the seals wear its normally when the car is cold or changing gear.
