So something like 200 192 192 200 would be considered alright?

Btw, part out your Mugen wing to me for cheaper and then you can sell your EP3 for cheaper! :p

As long they are consistent numbers with no more than 5% difference of each cylinder, it's healthy. Different gauges tell different numbers just like dyno figures. It's the consistency that's the most important.

My prefacelift measured 210 all round with 65,000km on the clock. (2002 model)
My facelift measured 180ish alround with 27,000km as per Phil's post. (2005 model)

However, facelift does not burn oil. Prefacelift needs topping up time to time.

Figures can also vary with the way compression test is conducted. Some mechanics does this on WOT, and some don't. Some take out all the plugs, and some does it one by one. It can also change due to engine temperature. A cold engine may give different readings to a hot engine.
