So, as a 1.5 year check up I changed the spark plugs and while they were out I did a compression test, numbers are as follows :-

#1 159
#2 145
#3 145
#4 140
#5 138
#6 140

As I don't really know the stock ranges can anyone give insight as to the health of my engine after 13k of 17.5psi

was the motor warm and did you hold the gas at WOT? even though ours are by wire, I'm just learning everything about these motors.... made a difference on my GSr Integra

 

whats done to the engine?lower compression pistons? or that range dosent look good

 

Built bottom end, Arias Extreme Duty pistons 9:1 CR ...
HKS head gaskets

 

for a lower compression motor thats fairly normal IIRC. Stock motors are in the 180 range, low compression in the 140-150 range normally..

 

Good news then Just heard from the builder and he concurs ...

Now, just, need, BC3 cams .......

 

your good.

 

looks as though im a second late lol

 

hit me up tommorow man..Ill check availability.

 

Now a leakdown is another story..

 

Sigh, I just need to do what I did with my turbos, just pull the trigger and then figure out how to get them in the car later

I hate being broke
