90psi on the lowest cylinder will be enough to fire that cylinder,even though it should be around the 150psi mark.

if engine hasn't run then compression could just be down to cold engine and rings not sealed properly yet..

you need to be looking at something that effect everything.. ie. crank sensor..
and individual item won't be the issue.. ie. if an injector was not working it would run on 3 or even 2.. I had a cambelt jump 2teeth on the crank for example and it still ran just misfired on two cylinders at idle.

holy cow..

first double check the turbo water and oil returns are correct, ie. oil and water not swapped.. unusual for the gaskets to leak at idle etc.. even is reused.
