Rescued 1982 900T (With Turbo Problems??)

Hello all,
I just rescued a 82 900 T from certain crushing. She is a beauty and has some problems. The one problem that is stumping me now is...I see blue smoke from the exhaust pipe when I rev the engine. Now, I would think the turbo is in need of replacing, right? The only thing is when I checked to see if the cartridge was loose, it was tight as new and spun smoothly. Now, the car only has 58K on it and it sat for almost a year before I purchased her for $50.00. What could be the problem and how do I check it to be sure?
