well this morning i started up the car and felt it missing a little bit... after checking wires one of em was unplugged, guessing ### ppl are always messing with my car, after i plugged it in it was still missing and now it sounds weird and when the boost usually comes in it vibrates like mad and gets loud. anyone have any guesses on whats wrong? -thanks, Elias
 
bpr7es just ran compression test and cyl. 2 has no compression whatsoever, piston rings?

Are you doing the compression test with the car warmed up? Service manual says ~212.

You could also add a tablespoon of oil to cylinder do and re-do the test. I think if it goes up, it's rings but if it doesn't, valves. Could be the other way around, I always get it mixed up.
 
yea i did the oil thing and it held like 65ish. the others are holding like 185
