    Project 328 Compression Test

    What’s going on guys, I’ve had my 97 328IS for 2 years now and it has always been my project. I just replaced the windshield on it and did a compression test today at my shop, here are the results.
    Hot engine, all plugs out, throttle to the floor, each cylinder was tested at least 2 times:
    Cylinder 1: 180
    Cylinder 2: 185
    Cylinder 3: 180
    Cylinder 4: 185
    Cylinder 5: 190
    Cylinder 6: 195
    Really pleased with the results.

    Right now the car is bone stock besides an M front bumper and projector headlights. Refreshed whole cooling system, and recently changed oil. Needs a ton of work on the exterior such as faded hood, passenger mirror, new trunk lid/tail panel (was hit from behind)
    Slowly but surely it'll come along. It has 155k on the clock
