Exclamation Oil Problems...

I have a D16Z6 Swap with a Greddy Turbo... It seems like it's either burning oil EXTREMELY Fast, or leaking somewhere...

I've noticed that the bottom of the car is perfectly clean when I check it, but the oil level keeps getting low. Also, I've noticed that around the engine is pretty oily, but not too much. I can take some pictures if that helps...

Now could it just be I'm burning a ****load of oil through the turbo? Or am I leaking it somewhere...

Also while I am asking this, I have another question about smoke out of the exhaust... When I take off in a fast manner and the turbo kicks in, a bit of smoke shoots out of the exhaust. I know normally a small amount shoots out, but this is a bit much for normal from my knowledge... Could my orings be bad? Once again, I can get video if it helps...
