Default Stock H22A Turbo - My cylinder compression test results ok?

Well I figured I would do a compression test today since I really do not baby it. So I drove the crap out of it and got home right away to do a compression test. Here are my results - let me know what you guys think ...

Cyl. 1 - 205
Cyl. 2 - 205
Cyl. 3 - 205
Cyl. 4 - 210
Cyl. 5 - ........ Just kiddin! LOL.

I think the numbers are okay - guys who KNOW about this stuff, what do you think?

On a hot Healthy JDM h22a compression numbers are around 220-230psi... Your numbers are very consistant so i wouldnt worry about anything.

the numbers themselves will vary between gauges. You are averaging the same compression in all 4 so you are good to go.

Looks fine to me.

But i would suggest a leakdown test if you want a more accurate description of the motors health.
