I should provide a "cylinder compression test" on my celica ST202 year 1999 (3SGE engine)

could someone give me the "correct standard results" please ?

ya but heres the thing! Since the 4th gen 3sge was not brought to the U.S. and was only available in Japan In order for the engine to run at its full 197hp potential it needs a minimum 100Ron = 94 Octane. the beams engine does not have knock sensor so running 91 octane is not acceptable, but no one has yet to answer my question. Can I use 91 octane for daily driving, as long as I keep the revs under 4,000 rpm,dont run my car fast and slightly retard the timing, or will that damage my engine while having a 13.5:1 compression ratio engine??

I know that the USDM integra type r has compression ration of 10.6:1 and the jdm 98 spec has 11.5:1 compression ratio.

the usdm of course has an electornic knock sensor and the jdm uses 94 octane only, while the usdm b18c5 engine has a knock sensor, uses 91 octane and looses about 3 hp. just thought i should throw that out there...

we have both 3sge engines over here and our fuel (Ron 91 95 98) all are regularly available. if you where running the standard compression you could run 91ron, but since you want to run a crazy 13.5:1 CR I wouldn't run anything lower than 98, in fact I dont know if that'll be safe kindasad.gif
