Default 16t with full obx exhaust

So for those that don't know, I just upgraded turbo and exhaust. At first my car was blowing a little oil in acceleration. now it's spitting unburnt oil from the exhaust (not a lot but its makin my back window nasty). i'm pretty sure its turbo related. what can I do to fix this??

You have three options:
1. turbo shaft seal
2. Very leaky valve seal
3. Excessive PCV pressure

Sounds like your turbo is leaking a lot of oil into the exhaust. Check your shaft play, more then likely the turbo is bad.
