for a h22a1

Nominal 185 psi
Minimum 135 psi
Maximum Variation 28 psi

I check my compression and it is running at 210 psi all the way across.

if it has that many miles on it and your above 210 across the board
then it probably has quite a bit of carbon build up.
you should probably get a leakdown test on it b4 you put too much
money into your current engine
