Not sure yet. But air compresses easily and I'm thinking how pin-hole size (0.5 - 2mm ?) pressure relief valves could relieve pressure.
I know my cylinders get to 160psi with a compression tester.
If I concentrated I could probably calculate [ie find on google] how much air can flow through 3x 2mm diameter holes at say 1200 rpm.

I was only thinking of using this as part of cylinder deactivation when no fuel was being combusted. So when fuel was applied to the cylinders, the valves would close.
