Awhile back, about 210k miles, I found my old notes. Engine cold, dry test:

1 - 200
2 - 195
3 - 195
4 - 185
5 - 198
6 - 195

With a minimum of 135psi, and a maximum variation of 28psi...

Honda made a GREAT car!

That's for sure! My motor (4 cyl), made 200 psi on all cylinders with about 220k (estimated). Remember, mine was rolled back...

In all fairness, my wife drove it and hit some water. I'm hoping for a stall, not a hydrolock on #4. I had to go fix it, but some water sprayed out of all of them.

No, way back when I checked it. I pulled plugs as soon as I got there, drove it home and did a LOF and air filter, then started it, then killed & checked it after ~30sec.
