I have heard that around 180 180 180 180 is perfect for a warm engine... if it's cold take about 20 off that.... but i could be wrong... mine got 150 150 150 150 cold... but that was on a brand new engine and the rings haven't seated yet. I will probably be doing a compression check later this week myself

this should help you out with any further questions:
