Default compression test results(questions)

D16z6 with 121k miles on it.Here is what I came up with

#1-158psi

#2-158psi

#3-160

#4-160

What do ya think?

Acording to Hayns 185 is exellent and 135 is verry poor.Looks like Im right in the middle.

I should be ok to keep boosting right?Im only @6-7 psi now

Yes the throttle needs to be open.Yes all the plugs need to be pulled out.


Dam pat that is really good compared to mine.Im gonna start saving now for a good re-build for high boost .

Ive allways raped the ---- out of my engine though.I guess Im lucky its not lower
