now cylinder 1 is still down 40psi but why have they gone up using a standard cam? im ganna change the rings this wednesday anyway but is 40psi down on one piston ganna make much difference in power??

maybe the piper cam lobes are worn check both cams for wear. you probably wont notice any difference in power the turbo will raise the compression .. is the engine missing at idle
