Default ohoh help fast?

So the turbo neon is done and I was driving it. Well it was cutting out under boost and only getting like 75psi of fuel at 8psi of boost. So i asked a few times on here and no one gave me a strraight answer. SO i put my bigger injectors on. 24's. It ran great. But now after driving it one lap it idled really crappy and I have smoke coming out my breather valve on the valve gasket cover like no other. Did I just run it really rich and fueled down my oil and spark plugs? Can anyone tell me what fuel pressure I should run at idle with the 24's accels? I know stock is injectors is 50. My rrfpr i think is a 1:1. Its the auromotive from jegs. anyone quick before I go to the garage? I want to drive it back today.

Well i just got back. Still no one has input? Well how about if I tell u my #4 cylinder has 15psi compression. the rest are all 160-180. The oil looked watery to me. So I started to pull the head. I just need to grab a new pulley to get the timing belt off quick. Any money on whats wrong?

I think u got it. But. I looked at it and it almost seems that the head pushed away from the block. I will get it off tomarrow and let u know. Thank god for spare engines. Oh yea "thats really bad" thats funny. Teach me to run 12psi of boost.

I know. But last time I did good. I have a fuel pressure gauge. It sucks. I just got it put back together and now this. And one of the strut mounts went out.

Did you check your compression before boosting the engine?
