Could be lots of reasons for a little less. The question is-

Does the car run fine now?

If the answer is yes, you are over thinking it and need a beer.

If the answer is kinda, you are DEFINITELY overthinking it and need a beer.

If the answer is No then you need a mixed drink.

I have a evo 8 that gave me 150-140-170-170 but it runs fine, pulls strong, and doesn't eat any oil so I either messed up or the valves are probably gone. Since if the rings are giving me the bad numbers it should go through oil like it does fuel.
