They do seem a bit varied! What's that in PSI? Did you test with the throttle wide open?


Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 06-04-2021

Yeah throttle wide open mate yeah bar 8.8 = 127 psi


Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 06-04-2021

Cylinder 2. 140
Cylinder 3. 142

Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 06-04-2021

Just checked 1 and 5 again 1 is 140 and 5 is 130 so 5 is my def blow pass but the others are low anyway not sure if this is because the low compression pistons of the 1ggte in a 1gfe block or am I just wishing lol

My mr2 was about 160 a cylinder and that was a GTE engine so was around 7.5:1 compression.

Workshop manual reckoned +/- 14% was acceptable
