Welcome , well depleting a turbo of oil will destroy stuff and considering thats part of your whole oiling system, you may have caused damaged elsewhere. You should probably take it a professional. As much as we can help someone..in person is much better.

Houston has a FB FiST club - but, they're quite anal about letting people in: you have to have a "real" FB page. Look them up if you want some "local" advice. Running an engine without oil is a surefire way of having a bad day. The good news is that our engines aren't terribly expensive.
