Evo 5 disapointment continued lol

Was meant to pick up my car today, just put fully rebuilt, forged evo 8 motor in it, guy called tonight saying hes not happy with it and beginning to strip it down. Was blowing blue fumes out the exhaust and was burning out 250mls of oil in 80kms of driving. Put camera down through spark plug hole and oil on top of pistons. Reckon it must have cooked the rings on the dyno. Unsure but will hopefully know the verdict tomorrow. Any ideas??

Sorry to hear that.... The V is still my favorite model. I hope you get things squared away.

Make sure they didn't install the rings upside-down...
