90psi of compression isn't going to be a cheap fix. Either the rings and bores are fuxored, or it has massive leakage at a valve seat. = New engine. The likelihood of re ringing it and finding a machine shop that can correctly hone FRM bores is not good. .025mm is the only oversize offered from Honda. If the bores are scuffed the .025mm isn't going to cut it.

Dude that is the first thing you should do before driving the car again. If you are having issues and have a cel gotta check it before driving the car. Could do much more damage driving it depending on what is wrong.

Yeah i know but im sure i didnt do anymore damage to the car.. Im pretty sure i bought this car with a motor that has been redling 90% of itslife and has beenboosted

Well just hope it isn't something that will get worse from continuing to drive it. My advice don't drive it till you check the CEL and do a leakdown test to see where it is leaking compression from.

Im not driving it.. Hell no..Where can i find used F20c's???

Look in the Classifieds here. Usually an engine or two for sale from a part out or something. Good deals pop up all the time.

Your CEL is a Misfire.

So i found out today i need a new block.. Im kind of relieved on that its only about a grand... but thats what i get for rushing into buying a car.. lessons learned i guess.. The piston rings are fried..

Thank goodness these blocks can't be used in another car. If they could be transplanted to Civic and RSXs, they'd be a lot more.
