I need some good help with this guys. And please just people who know what they are talking about, lol.

I have somewhat the same problem as mentioned, I had the dreaded "no oil pressure" light come on. Well as many people said, I went and replaced the oil pan gaskets and also cleaned out the oil pickup tube. Well in the process of not having a choice of stopping when the light came on, it blew both turbos. I just finished replacing both turbos. Well, of course the engine would probably have to run for a while before the code would come back on so I don't know if it will. But now when I start the engine, it sounds and runs great but once it gets near normal operating temp smoke starts coming from both turbos, NOT from the exhaust or anything, but from the actual turbos, and I also cleaned the oil return tubes also. The other thing you should know is that the engine is definitely got some sludge in it. I am going to do an enigne flush to help with that, is that the reason for the smoke? Or could the oil pump be out? Any tips before I drop a load on an oil pump and it not be the problem?? Thanks
