I didn't go squat about mine as the compression was relatively even and I don't care much for my $hitheap BA lol.

campbell8 Donating Members 34 Member For: 13y 11m 2d Gender: Male Location: Townsville Posted 15/07/13 10:48 PM Author Share Posted 15/07/13 10:48 PM I checked a mates BF Mk2 xr6t and his was 190closed and 205open. I just wanted to get an idea of what the VCT control does open and closed throttle. So we can see there is a difference there of 15psi maybe due to the fact that having it closed also causes a vacuum. But I am getting over 45psi difference in mine, a set of locked gears are on the way and the VCT will be goneskies as of the weekend if I get the parts before Friday. Possibly why the BF model falcons don't run much timing at the top end either Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85605-compression-issue/page/2/#findComment-1407099 Share on other sites More sharing options...
