Default just turbo'ed now smoke??????

i just put on my turbo and i am getting what looks like blue smoke. it would only smoke a little during full throttle before boost but now any throttle over 40% will give me a crap load of smoke. i plan on doing a comp test tonight but what else could it be?
im using a stealth mode oileline kit with restrictor closed just a little

How's your oil return line? Any funny bends or kinks? Also, was this turbo used? Could be bad seals in the turbo

oil is pushing pass your seals when in boost. if you get a oil restrictor your problem might go away. stevemode sells them for cheap.
