Default smoke out of tail pipe

Having some smoke comming out of my tail pipe. its mostly when In at Idle like at a stop light. it smeels a lil like burnt oil. I'm almost possitive that the turbo is wasted.seems car is not spooling very well(the RPMs are fine but speedo is slow to move) anybody havea similar problem? any help would be great!!!

if the tubo aint spolling theres your problem you probably have a bad seal or something in the turbo thats causing oil to go into the exhaust, im guessing your gonna have to do a rebuild or you may as well upgrade to a k04 ot BT.
