Default compression results!

did a compression test today and came out with the following:
210 212 220 205

this is on a stock JDM B18C (GSR)

do these numbers sound good and is there anything i should be worried about?!

Numbers seem alright, check them out again in a year or so to make sure the spread hasn't worsened any.

They look pretty good, but it's a 7% difference between the 205 and 220. Is it at 5% or 10% spread that you should be worried?

Those numbers look good, the one slightly higher cylinder may have a little carbon in it or something but check it again in a year like was said and see how everything looks.

The numbers aren't bad. As long as they are within 10% of each other.

actually i heard that seafoam may lower the compression since it gets rid of all that bad stuff in your cylinders that MAY raise your cr.
