If the oil pump went out, wouldn't the oil still physically be in the car, just not circulating? OP is saying the oil was flat out gone.

He is driving it because by having an a2w system not working will not somehow drink or drain your motor oil.
There are guys running superchargers that don't even cool the charge putting down over 400whp.
This problem would have happened even had you not had a kit on your car.

Agreed. This is just a failure to maintain the car. If the oil had been checked along the way, you would have seen oil consumption and you could have addressed that before the motor grenaded. The stillen kit has popped motors, but this isn't one of them.
