9.0:1 pistons so stock basically.

Lol, that was 7K miles ago when I performed a compression test, motor runs pretty good. I wonder if they improved. hmm

Well aren't IX numbers all goofy and low because of the MIVEC anyways? What is the factory spec?

**Kracka** · 06-23-2011

145 with stock cams and 8.8:1 pistons.

My comp tester would read 140 stock.

I like my reassuring 180+ across the board.

It it makes you feel any better about the compression numbers, the last engine I build has 110 135 90 125 compression numbers on 9:1 Wiseco's (.24 ring end gap) yet it runs what it should in the quarter 'feels' 100%... I'm pulling my hair out as to why the numbers are so weird... all cylinders are equal with a leakdown test, and there is no smoke ever...
