Lots of smoke!

Awhile back, we took in our Saab 900 to have its trannie replaced, and shortly thereafter, a horrendous ammount of smoke started coming out of the tailpipe and some from the engine compartment. We finally took it back, and the guy advised us that the turbo had burned out.
Is this likely? When driving, it drives normally--I can hear the burbo whine like before and boost seems ok, etc, etc. In so many words, the way it was before the trannie was replaced. The only issue is the plumes of smoke. Any ideas? How hard is it to take out and replace a turbo on one's own?
The car in question is a 1982 Saab 900 turbo.
Thank you!
