Well, if you were a dedicated Dubber and had your Bentley manual (it comes with a membership card and a decoder ring...)

ABA 2.0L new engine - 145-189 psi, wear limit 109 psi, max difference between cylinders 44 psi.
Mr. Bentley doesn't mention any of the parameters for a leak-down test, but that would also be a great indicator of how "tight" the engine is. If you're going f/i, it would be a good thing to know both.

| maybe my gauge is a bit off calibration but i checked my compression this weekend and got between 210, 207, 205,210.... maybe its a really strong motor or time for a new gauge |

i guess thats something to think about. but i dont know. had the car since 65k miles, so i guess it could be possible.
