    Default help!-compression test and clutch break in

    i just bought a jdm b16a1 and when the compression test was ran it hit 170 across the board...is'nt this alittle low? should i be worried? another thing, i got an exedy clutch and a fadanza lightened flywheel, with the break in period can i just get on the interstate and ride or do i have to be in the city where i'm shifting gears?

    dunno about the compression test, but on the clutch..... drive around speeds of 50mph and not hard on the pedel, through-out the gears for 200 miles and then your good to go.

    u dnt have to be on ne type of street, shifting gears help though bc it helps the clutch go through its heat cycle or whatever. the compression test is about right.
