Default compression and track numbers

Well I just got back from the track and well to most of you my numbers will bad but if you know what i have gone through with this car this is an improvement from the last couple of times.

My best run was

15.7 at 87 mph with a .549 light and 2.2 60 ft

Lets just say that from the first few times that i went to the track i have improved almost a half of a second

Also why we were there they had a mobile dyno and just to see what my problem may have been i strapped the ol honda on there and i put down 151 hp at 6300 (cause the idiots working the dyno only took it to accord redline) and 132 tq but the tq falls on its face between 4k and 5k i mean the lowest point is 113 at around 4700. and the 132 tq doesn't happen until 5400.

So i need some help to find out where the hell all my tq is (lil_1_2002) ran 15.28 and i can tell when i drive his car that is feels alot stronger in my low end.

So when i got home i ran a compression check on the motor and it read

Pulley to dist
226-195-212-225

I put oil in the 195 cylinder and it stayed at 195 so i need help.

Thanks
Accordhybrid

that doesnt really sound like enough to be of major concern. However, if it waS, your problem would be in the valvetrain since the oil did not make the compression go up. My 2 cents
