Actually my PSI conversion seems to be incorrect .. I read it off the gauge, but does not correspond with online converters which give me
Cylinder 1 ... 145 psi
" 2 ... 130 psi
" 3 ... 145 psi
" 4 .... 188 psi

which does not look good for an engine on 106k! Does anyone know what it should be, ideally?

of the top of me head around 180 psi is fine.the lower readings will cause running problems.

inlet should be 0.20mm
exhaust should be 0.40mm
