Anyhow...

Here's the symptoms.

*White smoke out of the exhaust at the tailpipes
(Mainly when stopped in neutral, but small amounts while driving after launching [not hard])
*Smoke smells like oil, smells a bit like it's running rich.
*Only pushing 7 psi on the boost gauge, turbo timer says .5 (Not sure if measured in BAR, but if so .5 is the equivalent of 7 psi.)
*#1 spark plug was fouled and wet, replaced but was not wet
*#2 injector was just recently replaced
*All 6 spark plugs have been replaced with NGK PFR6B-11B's

Mods to car
-Performance Clutch (Unsure of brand)
-Blitz Turbo Timer
-Jim Wolf Chip and ECU tune for 14psi
underdrive pulleys (Unsure of brand) --Power steering belt not on.
-Full Dual Exhaust (No Cats no X pipe or H pipe...Unsure of header and exhaust brand)
-HICAS DELETE

Please help, I'm really thinking it's the turbos and wondering what I should be expecting to pay. I want to stay with the stock turbo size (T25?) and need help finding parts and a reliable experienced Z mechanic near Cincinnati, OH.

How much should I expect to pay for a rebuilt and/or new turbo? Expected labor time?

I know it's a lot, but I want to be as descriptive as possible, thanks in advance for all the help.
