165 is very healthy. Must be a late 90's engine at that. The old clanger RS turbo engines only have about 135psi. As long as they are even and above
130ish it is fine. When EJ20T's lose compression they do it in a big way as ring lands break or pistons melt. The engines don't really wear out,
they will do 500k kms without wearing the crosshatching off if they don't get cooked to death in the mean time(this is what normally happens).
