I did a cold compression test when I bought my Volvo. Ranged between 120 and 130 and I don't have much of an oil consumption problem (~1/3L of oil so far over 2000 miles).

I think if you had over 100psi and it was all relatively equal, that should be enough to start. My 2 cents, over-priced at that.. ;)

BTW, what's the mileage of the engine?
