Ok, I'm good with this however the only problem is, unless everyone brings there own jack stands we will be limited to how far ahead we can prep.
The test should also be performed on an engine that is still relatively hot ... so I'm not so sure that removing your plugs too far in advance if the queue is long is a good idea.
That being said ... for example ... if we had 5 cars show up and 5 sets of stands ..
Yes once the tires and plugs are out it only takes a few minutes to do the compression test. You could just knock the cars out one by one in no time.
How the Test is Performed
1) Start the engine and allow it to warm up.
(2) Stop the engine.
(3) Disable the fuel and ignition systems. You should consult your vehicles Factory Service Manual for the correct procedure to do this.
(4) Remove both front and rear trailing spark plugs.
***WARNING*** The sensor module should be hand tightened only into the spark plug hole. Overtightening will damage the rubber o-ring and could damage the sensor module.
(5) Thread the sensor module into either the front or rear spark plug hole.
(6) Connect the TR-01 to the sensor module.
(7) Switch the TR-01 power switch to ON.
(8) Fully open the throttle and turn the engine over for at least 5 seconds.
(9) The TR-01 will display results in realtime and the final reading will be displayed on the screen until the power is switched off.
The following is my estimated Compression Test Schedule
Please show up early.
Especially because I feel the time is way over exaggerated.
Compression Test:
1. maRs - 9:00 am
2. Blackstealth - 9:20 am
3. Rotary-RX8 - 9:40 am
4. Kafka - 10:00 am
5. c_ls - 10:20 am
6. JordysRX8 - 10:40 am
7. SSilver07- 11:00 am
8. Maffu313 - 11:20 am
9. Telek - 11:40 am
10. JRogersRX8 - 12:00 pm
11. FERA - 12-20 pm
12. RX8_Spidey 12:40 pm
13. Rev-illusions 1:00 pm

They would be right to tell us to gtfo if they felt like it. Of course if we keep it civil should be okay... Buying pizza would help our case. I'm still totally down for pizza :D

It's been awhile since I've done suspension work but it shouldn't be too hard to loosen the suspension bolts ... I hope, the swaybar endlinks can be a bitch.

Make sure the other side is the same.
This isn't the "TeamRX8" approved method exactly but it should still work and if it doesn't we can try again tomorrow.
