Compression has nothing to do with the compatibility of ITB's.
What other mods do you have? ITB's should be the icing on the cake, not a first step.

this is so true, i actually ordered all my stuff all at once because i get impatient, but now my itb's are on back order and noone knows how long...but ill be happy with 215 all motor for now..but yea compression has absolutely nothing to do with the ITB's working on your application or not

you need to do more research before you get in over your head. itb's arent something you can just slap on and go nor should they be done till you get the rest of the engine breating better.

youre going to need fuel lines, vacuum lines, upgrade your entire fuel system(ie injectors, fuel pump, fuel rail,etc.) and a whole plethora of other stuff to even get it to idle....and most importantly a good tune

I spent alot of tuning just to get mine to idle right. A standalone unit would be the best, safc will make it run but not properly. I m using Hondata and it runs smooth as ever. Think of ITB's as the turbocharger of N/A's.
