At what PSI of compression should I start to worry about replacing the rings on a piped but otherwise stock 00' 400 EX?

Well, Im kinda guessing here, but On R's is good to rebuild, or atleast re-ring when its 10-15 psi lower than what it is new

The Clymer service manual says that it should be between 100 - 128 PSI. So I would say if you go below 100 then time to open er up.

yeah generally youll be able to feel the power loss...most of the time...while youre in it might as well put a higher compression piston in it...lol:D
