8.5:1 compression motor. I have friends who make the same compression numbers and make over 750whp. Again, these are cold numbers. I am going to go outside and do another test when warm to see what I get. But if a fresh DET gets 145psi across the board and I hit within 10psi of that then I know the motor is good.
The motor doesn't burn any oil. So bad rings? There is blowby on high boost when the oil gets really hot. But the catch doesn't fill up with oil.
If the motor is bad I have no problems putting new pistons in and doing a valve job to make sure things seal properly. But I don't want to waste money if there is nothing wrong. This motor cranks right over without issues and starts right up. It just doesn't seem like there is anything to worry about. Maybe bent valves?
Everytime I think my motor is blown I find out that the timing is off, or there are tons of boost leaks, or wastegates are stuck open. lol.
I will find out in about 20 min.
