Default Bent valves in a B16A2...

Is it possible for me to have some bent valves and the car still start/run? The car runs pretty poorly right now, the idle fluctuates, and the car bogs terribly at the VTEC crossover point. Any input would be appreciated.

Yes.

As mentioned above, do a compression test on all cylinders.

yes it can and will still run depending on how badly its bent. why do you think you bent valves in the first place. what makes you think that? it might not even be worht getting a compression test done yet not knowing why you possibly have bent valves.
