Default Seems I've tried it all

I bought a 1993 940turbo, 230k, car was well maintained prior to sitting for 3 years, ran strong but had bad oil leak above water pump, pulled cover and determined seal was bad (spun in housing) bought new seal and timing belt, replaced both, started car no leak, got on freeway (about 70mph) turbo gauge went up but not too high, fueled up, noticed oil leaking again, checked flame trap, breather box, both clean, replaced all hoses, still leaked, put tee in breather box under manifold to vent, still leaks and getting worse, have been told by numerous people (from novices to mechanics) engine needs to be re- ringed, does anybody out there have any advice, want to fix car, just runs to strong to get rid of......
