Default Compression question?

What should the compression test yield in a b16a2 with a stock head and head gasket and 9:1 JE pistons?

It depends on the gauge. With the stock 10.2:1 pistons, my Sears gauge showed 210 psi on all 4. With my buddy's Snap On, it showed 225. With another buddy's Matco, it showed 200.

Consistency across all 4 is the key.

Yeah I know that it needs to be consistent, but I just want to know what others are getting.

Thanks for the help.
