How do you know it was the turbo and not the engine?

well i haven't had the time to check my compression or to at least take out the spark plugs to see if they are wet so yes it could be the engine that bit the dust. I hope its not because i just got the engine no more than six months ago. Well, i noticed before that when the bov went off, smoke with a little bit of oil would come out. THen, when i ran it hard, i gave out. Im guessing if its the turbo, i will get it rebuild and bored out to 46 mm.
