Hey guys i have a 1990 Talon TSI that i recently finished rebuilding the block and head with eagle/wiseco/JAM Valves, etc... and within the last week i worked out all the bugs and now it runs steadily. I haven't put any mileage on it and haven't broken it in, but today i did a compression test, and these were my results.

Cylinder #1 - 181 PSI
Cylinder #2 - 181 PSI
Cylinder #3 - 150 PSI
Cylinder #4 - 179 PSI

Should i be concerned with the compression of cylinder number three or will breaking it in help the 30 PSI compression difference??? Thank you Guys :(
