If compression is good and pretty even on all cylinders, you are fine.

Actually, anyone know what compression readings we should be getting?

It's really risky having the intake down by the road in FL -- we get horrendous flooding all the time!

Hopefully your motor is okay -- you might consider swapping your current intake for either a G3 (filters high up in bumper) or OEM airbox (which has built in cold air ducts!), high flow panel filters, and smooth intake tubes -- believe it or not, that will get you within a few whp of the pricier CAI set-ups.

If your compression readings are off, put it back to stock and take it to the dealer. If you are lucky thye might just warranty it -- if so they'll just replace the whole head (nonserviceable).

Good luck!
