Default B16a Rebuild

Hey guys,i have an ek4 with a b16a and i noticed my car idling funny so my friend an i decided to do a compression test the results was cyl 4 195psi, cyl 3 90psi, cyl2 175 and cyl4 185

I wasnt expecting anything like this since the millage saying 98,000 kms but then again when u buy a jdm car u not too sure the original miles on it...

After getting that news i want to know whats the best course of action for my rebuild, i want to go back allmotor but i want to achieve like 180 whp what parts do u guys recommend?

Much thanks

maybe a little increase in compression.

tuning would help a lot too.
