Default smoke from dipstick

I HAVE A 97 850 I JUST PURCHASED IT.THE TURBO WAS BAD. REPLACED TURBO NOW IT SMOKES MORE THAN BEFORE. SOMEONE
HAD MENTIONED TO REPLACE THE VENT BOX / OIL TRAP. DID THAT. STILL SMOKING TOOK DIPSTICK OUT LOOKS LIKE A TRAIN
THE HOSE THAT GOES FROM TOP NEXT TO FILLER CAP TO TRAP HAS SMOKE COMING OUT ALSO WHEN IT IS REMOVED. ALONG
ALSO WHERE THE HOSE FITS INTO ALSO SMOKES. ANY SUGGESTIONS THANX

Have you checked the compression? Worn rings can also cause excessive blow-by.
