Default Blaster TORS problem(s)

Hi all. I went to glamis last friday and that same day i put my pro circuit pipe on, then stepped up the main to a 260, it ran awesome. it ran great for probably 5-6 hours of riding the first day(saturday) then when we were going to go to comp. hill at night it wouldnt start. i was thinking it was an ignition/electrical problem so unhooked every wire, then hooked them back together. it started, but ran like crap, then i turned it off, and 5 minutes later it wouldnt start again. we had some wire, so i put a little bit of it in the tors wire that has the prongs, and it started like 2nd kick(probably because i was kicking it like 4000 times before i did the wire thing) it ran alright, but not too well. if i stalled it it took like 4 kicks to get it started again, and i had to give it alot of gas cause my idle was all screwed up. then we got to the halfwaypoint to comp hill, turned it off to wait for my friends(yah my blaster is REAL fast-LOL) when they caught up i tried to start it, and it wouldnt start, so my dad hopped off the banshee, let me ride, and we put my blaster in the back of my friends truck, who was taking it to comp hill. it hasnt started since, and i could swear that i lost a TON of compression, it feels similar to the amount of compression you have when you dont have a spark plug in. could i have blown a head gasket, and thats causing my problem? i want to get rid of the TORS, where can i get a kit, and how much is it going to cost me?? any help would be great, if i get time i'll take the top end apart and see if i blew it or something.

- forgot to mention when i stopped i dont know if my flag hit me in the helmet or something in my engine went kaput cause i heard a noise.

you can get a tors block off from vitos for about 30 bucks. a good mod right there, the tors is nothing but trouble.

4 strokes suck.

do you think the lost compression could be a head gasket?
