Default so,... is the turbo about to go?

115k original turbo, so I cant say i didnt get a lot of life out of her. Last week, I was at a red light and noticed a puff of white smoke (a lot of smoke) out my exhaust. I recently changed my oil and hoped it was a fluke. I drove is semi hard for 5 miles today and again at a red light i filled up the area with white smoke (about as much as if I did a burn out).

Finished driving it around town and home keeping it out of boost or in low boost - no problems. So I got home and tried to rev it and drove it around the area hard for a few miles and nothing.

When the turbos start to go, will it smoke all the time, or now and then? I'm debating on just ordering another stock K03S, unless you guys know of a direct bolt on replacement for ~300-400.
