Initially thought it was an issue with the turbo as it couldn't spook properly.

Painfully towed it back to my mechanic.

After checking on the car with my mechanic it seems one piston is broken (missing a chunk) and one is scratched. Boost leaked through and pushed oil through the valve cover likely destroying the PCV module along with it.

Engine mods:
VRSF catted DP and charge pipe
K&N filter
AA intercooler
BM3

Any suggests on next steps?

New engine? revert back to stock and try to fight for warranty?

Rebuild?
Reading this was freaky.
The exact thing happened to me 3 days ago. I went to the track and during the first session my car went into limp mode and white smoke was coming out of my exhaust. I took my car to mechanic and the oil was all over the engine bay and when he examined the pressure of the cylinders it showed that cylinder 1 had no pressure employing that there is a leakage.

I have similar mods as you
Intercooler & charge pipe
Oil cooler
Decattee dp
BMC air filter
BM3 stage 2 agg 91
What fuel were running when this happened?
