I don't know what size engine you have, but my 95 with a 1.5L DOHC is supposed to be 146-190 PSI. According to specs.

Standard compression on a new engine is listed at 185psi. Minimum is 139psi. Book also lists the max difference between cylinders to be 28psi but would consider that a pretty big stretch. 10psi should be more like it.
