battery not dead.
spark plugs out. (now engine can spin fast)
fuel pump relay pulled, or you wash oil of top rings, (not good)and the fire hazard of fuel flying about. or pull the FI fuse seen here.(my compression page shows all fuses)

crank engine, until the compression gauge peaks out. (the 8 crank turns count on my page, is just to get an idea of spin rates)
wot, wide open throttle (no not perfectly wot , Just block the throttle open some.) let the engine pump air, or it will fail the test.
SPEC (factory specification)
185PSI is spec at sealevel.
126psi at 10,000 feet altitude, see that number, that is why I asked your location ( LA or up in Denver?) 2 different readings 2 locations, and key to diagnosing any car carefully.
