Moved the thread for you.
Compression will vary based on mileage, valve wear, piston ring condition, Ect.
Normally each cylinder should be within a certain percent of each other. With that being said, a service manual will tell you complete specifications on what they should be and what percent within one another. Low compression or big differences between each will mean a rebuild

the min compression no less the 125 psi.. and no less then 10-15 percent per each cylinder differance from each other..but seen 20 percent but that didnt affect the motor much....my wife has three cars.. 2 neon and a breeze..her first gen neon has 170 psi in all accept #1 has 160..that has 181000...2 gen neon 2 170psi and 2 155 psi and that has 142000..breeze has all 175 psi accept 1 was at 160...that has 157000 on it...now my 01 neon has 2 200 psi and 2 190 psi in the cylinders..that has 103000 on it..
