Default Re: a very messy hand, any comment on any street?

I cap the flop myself, but the rest is good.

turn: should i lead out since it is multiple opponents and i have 20% improving to the best hand, so push my equity edge?

This isn't quite right because you probably don't have an edge. If you know that you're going to improve to the best hand 20% of the time and have to improve to win, and you are betting the worst hand for value here, you want to be putting in less than 20% of the money (from a simple EV of betting calculation). With the board being what it is, if you do get called, it's probably going to be by a better hand, so you're going to need to catch more often than not to win. This means you're going to be putting in much more than 20% of the money, even if everyone calls, so it's a losing bet.
