The turbo on my car seems to be working ok for having 210,000 miles but I am going through about 2 quarts of oil per tank of gas. I get large puffs of smoke only sometimes when I drive the car hard at high boost. Not much smoke otherwise but there is oil all over the turbo components, air cleaner, injector housing, in the engine compartment. I think the oil seal is bad in the turbo and the oil is just flowing through the engine and exhuast. Any Advice in general or on how to rebuild the turbo seals? Turbo City sells the seals for about 90 bucks and claim that no special tools are needed.

Thanks for the advice
