Did you check both side to side and in/out play? Sure sounds like shot turbo seals.

Other things to look out for are clogged or cinched oil return lines. If its a ball bearing turbo, it might have leaky seals but good bearings and no play.
If all else fails, then check for leaky valve seals..though i doubt thats the problem. A wheel to steer the front of the car A pedal to steer the rear |

Check your Cooler piping for oil.
Check both sides of the turbo for play. My 50 cents are on blown turboseals. Kp62 - 135hp Ae86 - 135hp C32 Laurel - 440hp C32 Laurel - 125hp |
