Absolutely Horrid Compression

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.

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.
