I am not sure. This car is completely stock with 113k miles on it with excellent maintenance history. It pulls pretty hard from 3.5 to 6.5 rpm. I am not sure where the stock power band is. I plan to take it out today and figure that out. I will take compressions tonight. I am not sure how to do a leak down test on it though. I saw a link on another thread but i couldn't find it. I know how to do that on my airplanes. and I have the calibrated gage for that. We us 80 psi which would be low for a car I am almost sure. Leak down is how you test compression for air worthiness on airplanes.
