You have major problems in your motor! Your compression should be around 140-155 per cylinder especially if you just got the motor. Sounds like worn rings or your rings are sticking! Never buy a RWD CA18 with a 5spd tranny attached to it. It's better to get an auto and take the flywheel and tranny seperately because of the abuse these engines take while drifting or whatever the case maybe. I think from factory, compression should be around 170psi per cylinder.
