My oil had "frothy" bubbles in it from a tired turbo...

I just bought the part i needed from Buzz leonard for the mazda turbo for only a low low price of 200 smackers!

Alright, so I got my part in and bam! It starts up but flooded alot, but now it doesn't. I still have to adjust the timing a little more because I can get it down to 750 but it almost dies and there is this noise by the turbo that makes a whining noise. I think my Turbo might be going bad. Is there any way you could check it?

Im about to this week because I just hade to change my brakes on my other 7. I was also wondering if there is a way to check the turbo and intercooler and any other important items i need to check.

I did a compression test on it and got 95 for the front and 73 for the rear. I just put some MMO to build up that little compression I need. Now it does not stall out anymore and it runs at 850. It still shakes alittle though. Since the turbo has the oil cooler how much longer does it extend the life of it?
