Engine trouble

ok, I have a Evo with 26000 miles on it. 3" turbo back exhaust, hallman MBC set to 22 psi, and Nesie IC piping. Now I just changed the oil, and took it out for a ride, just got into boost and heard a loud pop, and oil sprayed every where in the engine. Blown Gasket? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Kind of vague but reminds me when i blew my intercooler piping off the throttle body.

BTW did you blow the dipstick out of the holder?

Probably not the engine or head studs. Check the oil dipstick to see if it didn't get lodged out. I notice that that happens with the 4G63 motors. It should be tied down.

Sorry about being kinda vague. The dipstick was fine. I looked at the IC piping, and the loud pop was the upper pipe blew off. But that's happened before, so no big deal. All of the oil is whats worrying me. All of the oil sprayed onlt on the by on the passenger side. no a drop anywhere else under the hood. Thinks maybe I blew an oil line some where

figured out the problem. It was bad oil filter gasket.
