My stock original 22 year old free/cheap modded Tsi is coming up on 200k so I decided to check compression today. Car was fully warmed up after driving it and test was done about 15 minutes later with throttle not open + no oil poured in cylinder for test + all spark plugs removed.
Here's what I got:
1) 162
2) 150
3) 175
4) 175
175's are higher than book says for turbo's (which is 164) so I'm not too sure what to think. Car doesn't use any coolant and very little oil for being close to 200k and pulls strong, runs + idles good etc. (7-bolt 1g)
Is this good or what
