ok, it turns out i have either a blown headgasket or a cracked piston(in #1). Thats the only one thats having problems. Hopefully its the first and not the latter! Im taking it to the stealership to get it checked out. DAMNIT!!!!!!!!
I just read some of this post after replying to your PM.
I honestly think you will find a broken piston is the culprit.
I don't see head studs in your mod list but if you haven't been cranking up the boost it probably is not the head gasket.
I would highly suggest if it is the pistons or engine in general that you take somewhere other then dealer to have it repaired. I would suggest you think about bringing the car north to Precision Dyno because they use an excellent engine builder for all thier machine work, etc. I know because he is my friend.
He is very well known in this area for his work.
