Compression question

What the normal compression (in PSI) on a stock 1.8L non v-tec integra motor?

who cares you look for even across the board anyway so...if the motor is dead it will read 180 178 181 120...soemthign liek that....you want this 180-178-180-180

shoudl be around 180-200 I'd imagine with the throttle plate fully open.

180-200 applies to all engines, right?
what if i have a 1.6L sohc vtec (d16z6)... 180-200 is the right compression for each cylinder, right?

and what do i need to test my compression? like tools or equipment? or i need to get it compression test by a professional because the equipment is hella expensive?

thanks for the info
