I'm looking at buying a 2004 RX-8 MT with around 30K miles. I had it inspected, as suggested here on the forum, including a compression test. The dealership provided me with a report showing the compression numbers, and said the engine had good compression. I placed the numbers into 2 of the calculators I found out about through this website, and seemed to get 2 different answers. I wondered if you'd take a look at the report (attached), and tell me what you think. From the report, I take the numbers (compensated to 250 RPM) to be:
Rotor 1:
693
710
692
Rotor 2:
700
736
720

Am I interpreting the numbers correctly? If so, are they OK?

Those are kPa values. The standard is 830 with a minimum of 680, a chamber difference of 150 and a rotor difference of 100.

Those are good numbers as Brettus suggested but are trending towards the minimum. They are way better than my current '04 engine.

Great news. Thanks to you both!
