My trucks burning oil WTF!

So I have a brand new TN BB on my truck with 2,000 miles on it, and a fully rebuilt motor. My truck is burning up oil like crazy. When I accelerate (no boost) a good amount of blue smoke is coming out my exhaust. And when I boost the smoke is light brown until i hit about 20 lbs of boost. I can clearly smell the burnt oil when I start it and shut it down. I dont think its the motor because it was rebuilt in december by a guy whos been a ford mechanic for 40 years!!! We are thinking its the turbo havent pulled the down pipe yet tho. Anyone have similar problems with their truck, I know you guys are the one to ask. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

mine smoked all crazy when the turbo went. and again when the next one went. so that would be a good place to start looking.

Any visual oil leaks? Oil coming out the exhaust, look at the base of the turbo for oil. How much is "like crazy"?
