Default nitrous or not?

i want to put nitrous on my z6 and i did a compression test and it showed from the #1 cylinder to the #4 cylinder 180, 170, 155, 160 i checked the specs and its in spec from 134-184 and they dont vary more than 28psi which is what our computer at the college said it to be. now my question is this good enough compression to squeeze on i bought the car with 180,000 miles on it freeway. the guy worked at acura and has all the service records that was ever needed on the car but i just want to know if it ok to squeeze like a 55 shot?

Your engine has had a good and long life. If the 55-shot blows it, which I doubt it will, at least you would have had fun doing it.
