Ok, I haven't done another compression test but I did order a new Passenger side cam sensor to see if that helps with the lack of power. Should be on the front door step this afternoon.

Replacing the cam sensor is not going to help your lack of compression issue.

I agree but I'm still not sure I did the compression test right.
I replaced the Passenger side yesterday and then drove the car. It felt the same but then gave me a Check Engine Light with a code of P0011. Driverside Cam Position Sensor, so I ordered that one and should have it in a day or 2.
We will see, what happens.

when doing a compression test it is important to prop open the throttle body otherwise you will not get an accurate reading
