So one cylinder will be down on compression. 6 cylinders here. So the engine will be down roughly 17%.I like those oddsChuck the head back on, screw 18% more boost in (1% just to make it better than before), jobs done, go chuck some skids. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this new info they have now offered to pay for there own engineers report, I dont understand what they think will come of this as I think my video makes it pretty clear that the valves were previously damaged. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
