[/IMG]hey guy i need help I got my top end apart. Is what happend was my car overboosted due to faulty wastegate and i did a compression test. This was my results 55,180,165,155
my main questions are was i running to rich or lean?? I was just going to go ahead a replace the rings cus thats what im guessing is wrong. do u think it will be ok to just change the rings with the pistons looking like this??? help Serious answers only please!!!
 
how many miles on the motor? Definately not all that rich. My pistons usually look a bit blackened up on anything I pull apart.

How did the plugs look? Can you supply some more detailed pics?
