I'm trying to lower compression in my engine
By loosening my spark plugs a couple of turns, how many do u guys usually go? I did two last night and my car sounded mean, like a chopper😁

OP is trolling, unless he has a fundamental misunderstanding of what a compression ratio actually is.

I look at it this way, by allowing some of the combustion gases to escape wouldn't that effectively lower compression? Less pressure during the compression stroke equals lower compression ratio? Isn't that how engine work? All I can say is, my car sounds more aggressive and ya'll wasted money on exhaust set up's when u could have just lowered compression. |
