its one of two things, either you have a turbo that has a leak or you have developed a problem with the engine. first off pull the charge tube off of the throttle body and check to see if there is oil in the intake tube or around the throttle body. If not then the compressor side of the turbo is fine. If there is no oil there check the spark plugs to see if it looks like there is oil on them or if they have been fouled by oil. If those are ok then it is probably the seal in the exhaust side of the turbo. What company makes the turbo and where did u get it from? I put a t3/t4 on my civic back in January and it had a bad seal on the compressor side that developed a leak after about 2 or 3 weeks.
