Need help advice and thoughts - No rotor detonation

Hi!
I am having troubles with my front rotor in my RX7 93 13b-REW engine.
It won’t ignite!
The story...
I just bought a modified RX7 with all the things I can imagine.
It was mapped on 0.8 turbo pressure but when I talked to the guy I bought it from I misunderstood, he told me that I could bring it up to 1.5 on the turbo but I didn’t get it had to be mapped for it before I pushed it …
So after I went out and tried it on 1.5 pressure it didn’t go that great.. Oil in the engine room...
First the fill oil line was loose, then I went out once more (with 0.8 pressure on the turbo), after that the oil-stick popped up and was leaking oil.
Tried once more and the oil-sump seal went… haven’t tried it again.

The problem…
Now the front rotor isn’t igniting.
I tested the compression and got 6.7 kg/cm2 when I crank the engine on the starter, and got new sparkplugs.
Still NO detonation…

It’s my first rotor engine and I would like to get some advice on where to look and what to look for.

It is a high tuned engine so it should manage higher turbo pressure, but as it was mapped for 0.8 and I pushed it to 1.5 something happened
One more question..
There is a oil “dump” line running back to the exhaust and is spitting out oil.
Shouldn’t the oil be lead back to the engine?
What is the lines purpose?

Thanks for any suggestion!
Regards
Mike Sweden
