I wouldn't believe your mechanics gauges. I think it would be worth 
remeasuring with another set on gauges.

<color><param>0000,0000,0000</param>The compression numbers I gave
were very general and I can be more specific here. Static compression
is taken by blowing 80 lbs of air into the cylinder and measuring how
much it will hold. Using a two gauge setup and a Calibrated orifice, I
think you are allowed just under 50 lbs. When this was done 1 year ago
I had one cylinder that read 50 and the others were higher. This time
that #1 cyl. read about 40 lbs. The lowest was #6 at 24 lbs. #4 was
only 44 lbs. and strangely #2, the one that I was so concerned about
and the one that was the hottest and most abused so to speak, was 56
lbs. the highest of all. Also note that #6 is the front left cyl. that
has the intercooler in the baffle in front of it and did have lower
CHT. This, to an engineer, is a shoulder shrug, meaning even us Idiots
can't answer what is happening.

I also would like any other inputs?</color>
