Hey guys, unfortunately i did a compression check on my jacksoned JDM b16a2 yesterday. Well, 3 cylinders show up between 180-190psi and the #1 is showing like 50psi!!! IM guessing that i ****ed up piston rings so WHAT should i do now?? Im thinking about selling the jackson and just getting another b16a2... any suggestions??

 

Just replace the bad parts it's cheaper. Buy some good low compression pistons. And have fun

 

have you done a leakdown test to see if its just a blown cylinder gasket on the #1 piston? is you car blowing out white smoke when you drive?

 

Hey guys, well ive had NOTHING but problems with this Jackson s/c... i had a perfectly good running b16 till i messed with it Anyways, i can do an engine swap all day long but i sure as HELL dont feel like dismantling the entire motor to change pistons.. I have no experience doing that but i know it would take a LONG time.

 

Am i right or am i right???
