I did a compression check on my b20 vtec-gsr head

My results 232 230 231 230- I was happy that all the numbers were equal, but I expected a little higher number- I have b20 block- eagle rods, endyn pistons- mid na dome- My gsr head is milled like 55 over, so I have a thicker cometic gasket.

So Im cotemplating taking headgasket off, but since im only running ctr cams right
now, and I alreadly order my toda b's, Im wondering if I should wait untill I tune
the todas to see how much mor power it will make. My first dyno results were
190hp 136ftlbs with ctr cams and jdm itr header hondata stg 2

Just asking some advice of what I should do- wait to get the cams or take headgasket of for more compression which will probably add some more hp.

 

WHy were you expecting higher numbers?

 

Where did u get your hondata tuning done? did u do it yourself?

For comparison for ya, I have a B20 with Eagle rods and the high NA dome pistons from Endyn and I got 275 psi across the board. I expected higher too. I have a B16A head. I requested little milling from the machine shops that did my block and the head.

 

wanna sell your CTR cams...?

 

Wait a minute you have a b20... and your only making 136lbs of torque? Mabye its just cause I see too many boosted b20's and the sick tq they make that your number suprises me.
