Re: comp test low need help (ORcivicsi)
Something isn't right... you should show #'s close to each other. When I put my JE pistons (8.8:1cr in a b16a2) before I started it I showed 170psi for each cylinder.

your next step is to get a leak down test...
edit: actually, if the motor runs good ie: good tune, no smoke, no leaks, no coolant oil mixing, pulls hard, then I would just drive it a bit more. follow posted breakin methods such as reving up to 4krpm then let off gas and alow car to slow down from back pressure only, repeat for 5k, 6k, etc...
if everything seems to run fine then check your compession again at 1k miles. if the numbers are still not close to each other then do the leak down test...
