Default My compression results

I just checked my compression and here's my results

1st cylinder: 140
2nd cylinder: 130
3rd cylinder:140
4th cylinder:140/150

I see anybody get 150-180 average. Maybe my motor is not warm enough when i did the test.

my motor has approx 100xxx..

I notice that it burn a little oil and the car sometime smell like oil inside when i hit WOT no leaks nothing. Any ideas whats my compression result is?? The car runs great, I get 310 miles per full tank

I was planning to boost this motor but by the look of it, it won't last long...
