pull the hotpipe off and reach down into the compressor housing and see if the wheel has excessive play. If it does, congradulation, you have joined the ranks of those with bad turbos.

Exactly how much oil is it spitting out? Is it a lot, or just a little? The last blown turbo and BOV combo I saw was pretty horrific, and shot so much oil out, the AC condensor was saturated. Not to mention the extra quart that was found inside the intercooler.
