Sheesh, not sure where else you are posting but if it is puking out the CCV that bad, you must have a bad case of blowby.

How many miles are on this set of piston rings?
It's beginning to sound like you have a LOT of blowby, caused by rings not sealing well-enough. Bad rings also cause low compression, which is a factor in poor starting characteristics.
Have you run a compression check?

Sounds like a bad turbo bearing mixed in with a injector issue.... If the last turbo went bad because of dirt entering the air intake tube it might have made its way past the turbo to your cylinders...
A. What kinda air filter have you been running (before and after the new turbo install)
B. Any "blowby" from the oil fill area on the valve cover and if so how much?
EDIT: Marv you and i are on the same page...

If it is spitting out oil, the only way to see it is to remove the compressor manifold from in front of it and place something over the outlet (to still let air get by) but catch any oil that might go out of it.
