Low compression. Blow by (Smoke coming out from your valve cover breather, smoke coming out from the oil pan dipstick hole). Car feels weak off the line (or Stalls out when you stop).

Re: symptoms of blown engine ??? (93LSivic)
no smokes coming out from breather , dip stick , havent check the compression yet
it still goes very hard , but i dunno if it just my imagination or something , i notice my engine sounds like a wrx ???
hmm its blowing grey smokes from the exhaust tho (@hi revs , @ WOT)
is grey smokes from burning oil and fuel at the same time ??

Blue smoke = oil burning
Is this from your tail pipe
also check for exhaust leaks...this could explain the WRX-like exhaust note...

leak in the exhaust system makes sense , cuz the pipe always got new scratches everytime i went thru a bump

If its out of your tail pipe then you may have bad rings or valve stem seals. But since you mentioned scaping on bumps...you may want to check for oil leaks as well....things to check for (in order of severity)
1. Check for a clogged or damage PCV valve...replace it if needed
2. Oil too thin...use thicker oil.
3. Oil leak somewhere (close to exhaust or under valve cover)
4. bad seals in turbo on the exhaust side...
5. bad valve stem/ seals
6. bad oil rings
7. pistons damaged, warped, or cracked
8. sleeves cracked

Re: symptoms of blown engine ??? (Anthony K)
