Ok I'm having terible problems with the gsx latley. In another thread i posted that i have 60% leakage in cylinders 1 and 2, 3 and 4 were bad, but not nearly 60%. there is 122,000 original miles on the motor and all maintance and oil changes were done at 3,000 miles. checked in coolant, no bubbles when compression and CLT testing. There is some white smoke on start up and runs like there is a major boost leak somewhere but theres not!! Basically what I'm asking is how can i tell if it's the rings or not? Once the head is off then what can i do to the head to determine if thats the culprit?

What else should i look for next?! :(
