ka24e compression specs

[MNR-Chicago_S13]

What should the compression specs be for a stock KA24E, i'm going to test mine tomorrow.

[deviousKA]

192 psi - 140psi. 140 is the very low limit 192 is high/new. hope for around 160-170 across the deck. make sure they are basically even. you may have more or less depending on your engines condition

[mrmephistopheles]

also, there should be less than 10psi difference between cylinders

I have never tested mine before but I'm thinking that when I have free time Id like to do it just for the hell of it.
So let's say the numbers come out low, what do you have to replace to bring the compression back up to normal?
