I've completed 3 compression test on my 90k mile engine. I wanted to find out where my motor was for future upgrades,but i am so unsure of my numbers. Dry test the numbers arent exactly matching. Wet test looks better than both dry test.
Cyl- 1st dry/ 2nd dry/ 3rd wet (oil)
1-115. / 111. / 115
2-109. / 105. / 120
3-117. / 105. / 120
4-111. / 114. / 118
5-111. / 106. / 115
6-108. / 115. / 117
7-115. / 112. / 116
8-121. / 121. / 125

I was thinking about doing a gt40p head swap and turbo kit, now? I've got a haunting engine overhaul worry (not what i wanted).

Throttle was held opened on 2nd and 3rd tests.
