Share your mivec compression test numbers. Aftermarket cams.

Ill keep this short and sweet for the time being. Anybody else run in to some really low compression test numbers on Mivec cars with aftermarket cams? I have ran in to numbers in the low 100s in good running cars with no symptoms of anything being wrong.

The factory numbers are lower than the non mivec cars of course. And the aftermarket cams can be ground on completely different centers etc. I just wonder if the numbers can vary depending on your mivec maps, and where the cams fall once you shut the engine down and the oil pressure is lost. I would think they would all go back to the same spot
