Hey guys need somewhere to start. Changed my boost to 6-7lbs to 11-12 lbs. When i did this i changed the pistons to the JE low compression pistons, added the larger fuel pump and went with the power commander V. Out for a ride yesterday and was on a straight away so was at WOT and out of no where starts dieing for power and i slow down and it quits. take it home and check compression and none in middle cylinder but will still start and run. also seems there is some oil leaking out somewhere now. (sidenote i added excell header and MPI can this year but did not reprogram my power commander(thinking i should have)

Where should i start?
 

Unless you've got a boroscope, start with disassembly and figure out where the hole is.

I dropped a valve once:

I do not have an A/F gauge so i am not sure to be honest. I was going to install one this season just havent gotten around to it yet. But according to guy who did work for me said i should be around 12.5...
 
Nytromchi - probably detonation showed it's ugly face, a head removal is needed either way, then you will know.
