Piston's: Check the compression in each cyclinder.

Valves: Same procedure as above to fault find.

Turbo : When the turbo gets worn it tends to leak into the exhuast however be careful if you remove the manfold to inspect becuase you will need to replace the gaskets.

Without more information about the colour of exhuast, when it is present and if there are times when it is not present .... There is no way to be of more help.
