63377, Is it ok if I squeeze with 112K miles on the car already?

Ok, I've had the kit in my closet for almost a year already I think. Hehehe. Anyways, I already have 112K miles on the car. Just did a compression check prolly like 6 months ago with a reading of 190 on 1 and 210 across. I have 4 CELs, a 31, 21, 42 and another 42. Oh yeah, we think it might be either burning or leaking oil. Not sure what it is. With these conditions, do u guys think it would be wise to do this? I'm getting a beater car anyways soon. So how long do u think the car will hold?

Well I'm gonna go ahead and say yes IF and only IF you get those oil problem checked.

Fix the CEL's and then you're fine. I had the same exact compression readings when i went turbo.

It's not going to last forever anyway. Fuck it, who cares. Spray away.

People who dont risk stuff breaking have no business modding imo. If there is a question wether or not to mod something then the defualt answer is no.
