tannan Posted May 7, 2005 Author Share Posted May 7, 2005 just got back from tvm all is well. my plugs where shot and i was running bad thay gave the car a service and good as new. i am happy again the compression test as 120 on all thay are down from 147 150. but this is dew to the wrong head gaskets . but colin said this works in my fav as lower compression means i can run more boost . i am wating as he has a sti ecu that he is working on a deal for me so i will be running more boost my blue smoke is black lol Link to comment
