I compression tested mine after my rebuild and got 198psi.

200psi is factory brand new.

I would expect you to be over 150psi if not long rebuilt.

Still at the bottom end of been fine though. 

thats it inplace i 3d printed the face. working on another design but works dropped egt by 150deg

mine has lower compression ratio of 8-1 so it wont run so hot. normally 17-20 times the CR is your cylinder pressure 

if yours is 9.5 to 1 then it will be much higher but then you run hotter and also you cant run such high ignition timing, 9.5-1 is for street cars to not be so sluggish off boost

986 front brakes and custom made carriers. Thankfully my old man's got a machine shop. 312mm brembo extra discs. Notice the pad overhangs no more, before and after picture, the cms brackets were junk. Notice the broken bleed nipple and the broken ezy out. I machined it out and made an oversized nipple again at my old man's. Offset is spot on also no grinding pins!
