As with everything else, there isn't a definite 'correct' number for your
compression.

It is best if they are all the same, or that the lowest is no less than
80-85% of the highest.

Good numbers are in between 100psi and 175psi, I think.

If still in doubt, run the compression test (wet and dry) and post results
to the list... then you can get an analysis.
