"Caramba! Valve indentations!"
Dag gum 91 octane Iowa gas!
Sniffle, sniffle, sob, sob.
I know I've made light of some the destruction of Justin's engine, but Justin is such a
great guy to share this with everyone. It seems like an 11.76:1 compression ratio is just
simply too high for 91 octane gas. I guess that's why the US Type-R "only" has
10.6 compared to the Japanese 11.1. If you see a '90 Integra LS with Racing Hart wheels
being towed aimlessly around the country, be sure to offer your condolences to Justin on
his engine.
