Question Smoke in exhaust FD3S 99

Hi everyone.
After I had solved vac issue (https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generati...gears-1036906/) my car pulled well, but 2 weeks only
Boost on the secondary turbo missed and got smoke.

here is a link of smoky car - https://www.dropbox.com/s/kdtqlsvzvcdfyty/IMG_2256.MOV

I got out my turbocharger and saw that the secondary turbo's shaft was broken

My friend gave me his turbocharger from 96'spec FD.
It was a bit rusty, but shaft play didn't big. then cleared, installed to my car, cleared intake pipes (but I didn't clear intercooler and elbow, my fault).

After finishing installation I started the car, saw no oil or coolant leaks, no smoke in exhaust.

Then I done test run.
There was boost at primary turbo (it was felt), a run about 1 km without hard acceleration, only with low acceleration.
Then I decided to check the secondary turbo, get 5000 rpm , there wasn't proper boost, but a lot of smoke in exhaust again.
And smokes at idle already. Engine works stable (3000 km after rebuild).


I got out TC again and saw that shaft play stayed in the same condition as it was before installation.
Hot part of the first turbo was in oil, exhaust manifold also in oil, elbow in oil, throttle body in oil. See pics.

And please give me an advice.

Thanks!

What do you have for crank case venting? Before throttle body oil really only comes from crank case venting, or a blown compressor on a turbo.
