Default Compression test from Boost since April this year...

I have seen 14psi on several occasions accidentally, a couple times the ground came off the battery (where the aux pump is wired to...now bolted to frame).. and several other little things... and a bunch of races...

~190 in all cylinders a hair off on one or two but I'd say 190 across the board.
a little fresh oil on the plug threads closest to the cam gears, plugs looked good other than that.

reset ecu and let it idle..... idles good.

This weekend is a day to finish the wiring of my BTM and crank it from 10psi to 12psi and after everything settles and goes well there for a couple weeks.. it's up to 14psi and a dyno tuneing.. I won't RUN 14 except for a dyno tuneing and one of the big boys that might necessitate a little extra umph from my tiny little inferior 4 cylinder honda engine...



It was this time last year that i discovered cracked ringlands... just celebrating my anniversary.

BTW: I have 9-1 compression pistons if your wondering why the numbers are lower than a normal GSR.

well.. the car idles fine now.. so i dont know what reseting the comptuer did, but i'll know tomorrow..

i have a couple more things to try if it does the same thing.... but so far no codes, just a rough idle after a first stop... then it will settle down to an idle.

im going to replace the IAC i bought from the dealer (known good) with the one in the car, just to be sure. recheck vacume lines and go from there.

i also want to replace the FPR, i think that might have a problem too..

... ah the never ending quest for more power.. LOL
