I think 140-150psi will be near the optimum for well lubricated pistons.

EDIT: Haynes (which I guess means RAVE) indicate 10bar (about 150psi) minimum with a variation not exceeding 1.5bar (22psi) between any two cylinders.

Note that all values will vary depending on the teperature of the engine. Most people will do compression tests when the engine is cold.
