Default Oil blowing everywhere!

Guys I need help! I was installing a turbo system n my buddies 96 civic ex. Exact turbo it T25 with stainless mani and DP. We got everything together tightened down and ready to rock. Initial start up was ok but then we noticed a slight leak from the oil-feed on the turbo. We then diassembled and found an *** load of oil in the inter cooler pipes. and in the DP, can you say White smoke everywhere. Why could this be? It's a new turbo and all.

check your oil drain line, make sure its not plugged and should point down. What size is your oil feed line? If its too big youll dump way too much oil into that turbo

The oil feed is a standairs steel braided line like the one with stealth mode kits and the oil drain pionts straight down. Could there be to much pressure?

on a stock motor? there shouldn't be too much pressure. check your turbo and make everything is tight no loose seals.

We opened the turbo up and the compressor wheel seemed fine but there was a ring at the back that was loose and wobbly. I dont have a clue
