I thought I'd share the results of a compression test I just did on my '05 AP2 with 65,000 miles. I got 250#/240#/255#/#247 with a hot engine. I've run Mobil 1 10w-30 almost exculsively, and have over a dozen track days on this bone-stock AP2. I'm quite pleased at the results, both overall results and balance between cylinders. Last week I pulled 206whp on a Dynojet, so the compression results don't really surprise me. I also just sent a UOA to Blackstone and will post results when I get them.

I'm truly impressed with Honda's quality. 14 track days over 2 1/2 years and the only real extra maintenance is replace pads and a set of rotors. I do fluids regularly (5k on motor oil, 10k on MTF and diff, annual brake bleed with ATE blue), and that's really it. I do all maintenance myself in my rare spare time, and the S2k is easy to work on.

 

Very similar numbers to my 100k mile AP1. Yet somehow it doesn't burn a drop of M1 10w30 in 6k miles. Honda

 

Not so similar numbers on my AP1


No replies to my thread though.. I'm hoping mine isn't anything tooooo serious.


Grats on the #s... sounds like a healthy car

 

good stuff

 

Honda engine ease of maintenance ftw!

Learned how to do a valve adjust on it!

I love how everything is out in the open for us to work on - very different from the camaro I came from.

--actually, its more like the older camaros...back when it was made to be wrenched on.

 

Tested mine a few weeks ago and got 230/235/230/230. Happy times.

 

not too bad man..good deal, i always like seeing comp test results from different driving habits

 

ap1 or 2?

 

I just tested my 2003 with 186K miles and got 230, 235, 240, 240. It's consuming a bit of oil, but running great!
