The effect of the pressurization will vary with the condition and state of every engine. While I may not be having any adverse issues, I'd also speculate that I'm much more vigilant with my maintenance than many other owners here on this board, possibly resulting in a better condition.
For example, my S2000, with 140k miles on the clock (and currently at over 17 million vtec activations) has steller compression numbers across the board (within 2% of new), but with very high leakdown numbers (30%+ per cylinder).
