Thus far we have found the following issues with the OP's car.
1)one side of the motor running rich one running lean
2)intake leak in lower intake where it bolt into heads, sucking in excess air causing lean condition in one bank
3)very bad tune on vehicle
4)leaking from BOTH head gaskets
5)3 qts of oil low
6)metal shavings in oil
7)metal particles and dirt in entire intake tract,plenum,ect..
8)No gasket on TB, silicone used instead
9)poor compression
Compression results
Cylinder
1-140
2-130
3-110
4-120
5-120
6-140
The motor is not going to last much longer in my opinion. This may be a result of either poor assembly coupled with poor installation and poor tuning..Once again the importance of having one shop do it all and control the quality of work being output.
I am honestly angry with the level of work being done on members of the Z communities cars..With jobs like this,and the one we got from up in Michigan a while back, and the VRT fiasco, it makes me sick to see people wasting their hard earned $$$$ on chop shops.

The newest find is that the remote starter wire is tapped off the VCT wire for the cams, and causing an issue. We also found that an injector may be hanging up causing a further issue with the car..
