What motor is this? Are there any power-loss symtoms? I dont know anything about the leakdown test numbers, the compression numbers seem ok. Might just have a headgasket thats starting to go.

it's a B16a1 not real powerloss symtoms but my car has always felt like it could do better

I have AEM CAI, Greddy SP2 cat-back, high flow cat, ACT prolite flywheel, ACT street/strip organic clutch, ACT heavy duty pressure plate, LSD, Falken Azenis sport tires and I only run a 14.85 (I not a horrible driver)
