For one, if you have the stock pipe on it your over revving by 500 rpm. The SX should run at or very near 7500 rpm. After peak RPM you are loosing 15-20 hp per 250 rpm. So you could be loosing as much as 40hp by running at 8,000 RPM. Also if you could post a pic of the piston damage I could tell you with more certainty what is wrong.
For starters, are you running the stock air box?? Stock pipe?? Im doubting you have an oil related problem and I would bet your burning up the mag side piston or both with the mag side showing more damage. Im guessing the crank seals are shot judging from my experience with the 570's. Another question is, what brand of piston and rings are you using?? Are you using 91 octane fuel??
