Guys, you may have seen my previuos posts on my compression. This time I set my cam gears to 0-0 and got still like 220 across the 4 cyliders...and here I have a Mugen headgasket and DPR stage 6 head...and supposed to have like 11.8 compression

Now we take my buddys stock 94 GSR and did the compression test and he comes out with the same numbers..... What on earth is going on?

and still, I can drag race him and beat him..

What gives?

 

somethings really wrong there
maybe its your valve seals
do you blow white smoke from your exhaust

 

Nope I blow no smoke at all...my car runs fine and feels real strong...



How much was your bottom end rebuild?

 

i dont understand it then
if you got more stuff done than your friend
the only other conclusion i would have is your piston rings
umm all together the rebuilding of my bottom end was
around 1300 for parts labor was free
it was done by my sponsor
but he usually charges 600 i think for labor to put together a bottom end
what prices have you seen?

 

I havent shopped around yet for pricing for my bottom end. I wanna get it blueprinted and balanced and ready to up the compression real high and be able to rev to 10K...like SGT

 

i might be selling mine if the price is right.
i'm also pushing like 90 psi of oil pressure so you'll easily be able to push to 10k

 

how did you break-in your engine after the new mods?

 

You are being too paranoid.

Whoever told you that static compression is related to your compression test results is smoking some serious crack.

Just becuse you raise your static compression, doesn't mean you will yeild higher compression numbers when you do a compression test. The two are unrelated.


When you do a compression test, you are merely looking for consistency across all the cylinders, the numbers really don't mean much, unless they are abnormally low.

Please understand this and quit losing sleep over it.
