190, 197, 191, 180

can't post much right now, but i think that last 180 was due to a loose adapter ring on my compression tester. I tested it a 3rd time (the other cylinders only got two runs) it would spike up to 190, then slowly bleed down to 180-185 and hold. I took the worst case number (first two readings). If i re-test, I'm pretty sure it will read in the 190 range, but I didn't have time to do it today. and I didn't think to re-tighten the adapter ring.

anyhow, not too bad aside from cylinder #4 which I think is a fluke. I'll be re-testing soon though. I need new plugs though, the plugs are ashy white on the grounds. Meaning too much timing, lean, or just too hot. car hasn't pinged at all, I do drive the **** out of it though. The electrode is good though , the iridium is pretty durabale.

Overall i'm pleased with the #'s @50,500 miles. The 9.8 cr reads more like a 10:1

oh, and the neuspeed bar totally gets in the way of spark plug changes. i had to remove all the nuts, and unseat the passenger side of the bar to get the coil packs out and to get my extension into the spark plug holes.

 

wow, you have a lot of miles. i just hit 11k last week w/ my 02
