Message	The other members have already made good recommendations. The car I bought had similar compression readings. At dis-assembly I had 3 pistons with cracks in the ring lands. At this point I just replaced all of the pistons, rings, pins, bearings. If you haven't been consistently running 18psi and above boost it might not be cracked lands. Only way I found the issue was after the engine tear down. Good luck.
