Default REALLY low compression test result

Just did a compression test on my 92 B18A w/169,000 miles. Somewhat warm engine, cranked 5-6 times each, and held the throttle open. Got between 118-120 on all. Im pretty sure the gauge is accurate, but the engine doesnt burn oil and feels very strong. Only problem is that i do have loud piston slap in the motor when its cold.

Is it possible that its actually that low and not burning any oil???

Good point.

As long as the numbers are consistent, you should be fine.
