Hehe, actually, I think you can run a properly setup auto quicker than a manual. I'm sure you've seen the numbers that Jime is putting up.
Actually, I bought a compression tester today. I found some very interesting numbers...
rear bank: 211 - 197 - 219
front bank: 201 - 195 - 208
125K miles on motor.
What was the standard compression? 185? Greatest diff between cylinders? 14?
If the compression was low, I would worry. But a few of them seem freakishly high (219???). I wish I had checked before I ran 100lbs of nitrous though it. I just don't know what to think.
Still losing oil like crazy. I guess it's not rolling out of the tail pipe... there must be a spot that only leaks while I'm driving or something.
I'll try to stop out there after work. I'd like to see what your 157K motor has.
