blown rings will cause excessive blow by like that. All of those things you mentioned are not needed. The problem was caused by either to much boost, or running to lean. Since Ive seen stock motor that can easily handle 13 psi of boost with the proper tuning Im' going to that say that you were just running to lean. how much were you boosting and what was your fuel setup?
