Compression worries

[Texas gst]

Just looking for a quick opinion or two please. I checked my compression not long because my recently acquired gst was smoking. Turns out it was just the turbo. Anywho, I has checked the compression and it was 135-142 and not much difference wet (like 10 pounds on each cylinder). Anyone have a thought on the lower compression and should I be worried yet? No trouble with the car or anything worrying me except the numbers. 125k and pretty much all stock.

i wouldnt worry too much about them being a little low as long as there evenacross the board your good
ive done a comp test with 2 different gauges 150 across and the other read 170 across

My compressions goes 115 95 115 115 and I don't even get any blue smoke when it first starts up and still runs good but i do have a little bit of a bad idle. It kind of misses here and there and tought maybe the compression could be the reason. I don't think you have to be worried yet.

Since the standard PSI is 178 with a service limit of 133 for a 2g, I'd say you guys are a bit low.

I plan on rebuilding my engine next winter if i dont sell it but as long as your numbers stay close across all cylinders its not that big of a deal. Your car well still run fine you just won't have as much power as you could with higher compression.

That's what I was hoping. Thank you.
