gonna get a comp test done soon, will report back with the results
It's wrong that they say nominal. it can't be nominal for B18C1 and B18C5 to have 270. the C5 is meant to have more compression than the C2. but the max/min/variations are correct.

well from reading some of the U.S. forums and a post or two from here it seems 180-220 is healthy for B18C2/1.
the helms manual states "must be no higher than 270PSI and no less than 135PSI"
270 would not be stock compression. pretty sure stock compression is about 220 on the B18C2 and about 250 on B18C7. I think helms is just stating that it should not be higher than this on the stock engine. (assuming 270 is the max the stock block and pistons can handle maybe?)
it'd be good to get some more input from some of the admins or tech experts on our compression results and testing
most likely if it's higher than 270, it has arrived in ping city.
yeah I had a read of that already. thanks though! mainly wanting to know if anyone with first hand experience on this mod could give me some tips and whether it's worth it/works well etc. and what rods I should use. hopefully stock is ok!
