Those numbers seem a little low but at least it's across the board and not only on one or two. To give you an idea I replaced my rings and pistons and saw about 185 across the board on a dry test. It not a time bomb but if you where able to bring that compression back up to 170's you should see good gains.

Also see that the number 8 is much lower and thats pretty common for the rears to be lower. Have you started to hear any ticking in the heads?
