that motor should have at least 200 across the board. its 10:1 comression. Damn thats kind of low numbers, but as long as they are equal numbers boost the hell out of it and have fun.

please explain how you did the test.. did you do it WOT and was the engine hot or cold.

120psi sucks, id bet you did it on cold engine and NOT WOT.

IM guessing the same. i have accidentaly done it without WOT and it makes a huge difference.

ooor maybe he did the test right and he just has 120....do a leakdown, altough if all 4 are about the same...maybe it was just a testing error, but as long as they are consistent i say go for it.

Or maybe his compression tester is junk since the numbers are consistent across the board.
