well i changed my plugs, and did a compression test while they were out. All cylinders are reading 220 psi, does this sound right for 1. compression? well, they are damn better than the 130 i was getting before the rebuild.

god damn... 220 James. that is like a brand new car.

How does 10.5:1 feel at 8psi?

WE need to go Honda hunting one of these days with Mike..

kaiser

-K-

yep 220 is great compression. That's like really high. I guess good compression ranges from 170-220 on a 420A. But 220 is really high, you running 10.5:1? Thats sounds bout right.

haha the best I could push out was 150 today the engine probably cooled down a bit though so who knows...

I wanna come Honduh hunting! I can keep up the smoke screen in the back of the pack, Spy Hunter style... confuse the cops

Whoohoo 120 on cyl 4, and another quart of oil kicked out into the engine bay on my way to work today (arg)

Seriously tho, I wanna come watch. Still haven't even met u, james.

well, we run like 9.6:1 stock, and decent compression is ~160-220...
with 10.5:1 compression, i would think that you would see higher compression #s..

im no engine guru tho, but i think im on the right page

now: 20g, portfueler, bpu+++ (track/dyno times tbd...)

i farted on your wiki

correct. with 10.5:1 comp, your compression numbers should be higher than the same engine w/ 9.6:1, so u look to be in GREAT shape.

He has 8:6 compression from what I remember.

I gots 10.5:1 compression pistons, i have 220 on all cylinders. hey dave you get that email? is it understandable?. Nope haven't met you yet dan, aren't you like right near me here in cerritos, i was at road race one day and i saw a white eclipse in there getting an hrc kit put in and i was poking around and shootin the shit, and it happens that that was your car from what kaiser tells me. I think...well, i'll probably go to the next local socal 2gnt meet whenever it is an we'll all hook up.

Yeah I have the diagram and it looks pretty good. I am going to do surgery on my type S BOV tomorrow. Should be fun. I hope it works and then it will be sounding and working much better. For some reason I thought you had low compression pistons. 10:5 should be pretty interesting. Let us know how it runs after the break in. I bet you cant wait to get on it.

That compression sounds perfect. I have 10.6:1 compression, and I had 220's in all four cylinders too. Most 2gnt's seem to be around 180's stock.

Marcus you have 10.6:1 compression also?

I know you had some pretty slow 1/4 times, what were they? I can't believe an auto with higher compression and headwork would still not break 16's. I have an auto too, I know the feeling.
