Broken ring lands on a forged piston is usually from detonation. Either it was not mapped right, too much boost for the fuel/map or something else is wrong.

Going to pull the motor soon to fix, will be allot easier to sell if it is running. Motor just has the noise.

Broken ring land usually don't make a noise, just less compression, and breath a lot more.

Because of the breathing i realized its a ringland. The best would be to open it up quick and have a look
