Default engine good?
got a b16a3 with ctr pistons and cams, did a compression and leakdown test on them and these are the numbers (1)10%-120 (2)5%-125 (3)5%-125 (4)5%-130 all leakdown was done at 100 psi, engine was supposedly just rebuilt with mentioned parts. I would think with a fresh motor numbers would be better, anything i should try?

For cylinder leakage anything under 20% is ok.

I would have expected numbers a little better than that though.
