Boost levels?
In general, are issues like this related to random hardware failure due to high loads, or can be caused by tuning causing unnecessarily high stress? |

Wait so OP first found weird things in his catch can to include what looked like fuel, then he blew a headgasket and found oil in his coolant, then he proceeded to window the block. I just want to make sure my timeline is correct.

Hmm almost every time I've seen this encountered it has been some kind of pinhole leak/split in a coolant hose, but if you can't see it obviously dripping from anywhere I don't know.

She's definitely blown a head gasket. Coolant was seen dripping out the oil dip stick tube when the stick was still in.

This may help
 What type of turbo are you running? Precision?
