Catch Can only went in 5 days ago haha. Might see if theres any kinks in the line pretty sure I made certain there wasn't

Start with the catch can......

as I said I could be wrong but I thought the only difference was the compression and exhaust valves....

Turbo piston are dish to reduce compression and have a different gudgeon pin to an NA, also to my knowledge Turbo rods have a piston cooling oil jet hole in the rod and NA rods don't.

yeah I knew the blocks were the same unsure of internal componants. Makes sense though. I dont think the catch can will be it but will double check the lines going from the catch to the inlet manifold - make sure they arent crimped.

but where to after that?

My guess is that it is probably running an LPG engine/ bottom end. But as Ralph alluded, do a leakdown test just to see where you are. As you may be have a cracked ring/piston, running such high comp ratio would possibly (more than likely) be causing damage over time. Which has lead you to this point. I also find it interesting that your gearbox is still hanging in there, at your power level.

Cheers
