Default what causes this?

No compression!! There was a b16 swap into an EK civic and now there's no compression. There's fuel and spark but no compression. Any thoughts?

yah man, there was no readings on any of the cylinders and the tester workds cuz they placed it on another vehicle and no reading. As for start up, it just sounds like it's turning over but not starting.
