Default Bump for the Vtec Engine Quality!!

I just had a leak down compression test done on my car to see how healthy the engine was. I am planning on adding a turbo first, keeping the boost low then rebuilding the engine as the money slowly trickles in. Anyways getting back to the original post, I had the test done. Keep in mind I have a 94 GSR, 182K miles. The leakdown went as follows. 1st Cylinder 3% leakdown, 2nd 5%, 3rd 3%, 4th 5%. Am I insane or do these numbers rock for a 180k motor, that has not been rebuilt to my knowledge. Bump for Honda Vtech Engineering.
