206HP/296NM probably too much for 7AFTE, (with stock internals) Options

Folks, sad to say that but after 2 years of running 7AFTE (by doGGy) on 0.5 - 0.9 bar it seems engine is doing down . True is for last 10month I have been running 0.9 only (because 0.6 was too low for me ). Now I must face consequences . Seems that stock internals are not able to hold that pressure. During compression measurement last weekend I found oil in combustion chamber #1. Also compression ratio is more various than should be for each valve (should be 9.5 for all and is between 8.5 to 10.5) so it seems engine needs to be rebuild . In few days (hopefully) I will have plans and funds ready for this rebuild... My aim is having safe 7AFTE. That means to not destroy engine in two years again... I want power and 0.5 bar (176HP/225NM) is really not enough for me now as power for common driving.

note: according facts above my car will not participate PECM2009 in Greece . That' the worst that could happen for me...

Dang, sorry to hear that. Malpaso, you met Tufy, with that 2.2L stroker kit, did you know if he daily driven that car? I have been asking around but couldn't get much information. I know it is rather off the topic, but just curious.

I hope everything goes well for you and I am sure you can even rebuild the engine better than it was before. I want to rebuild mine just so I have a Toyota engine to build, but I need to get another car first.
