Default help?!?!? my baby is dying slowly??? i postd in the wrong section before i think

alright guys here is whats going on, i recently just added a the STS kit for my car, got it installed everything is smooth, got a nice base tune on it and everything has been running some what fine. HAVE NOT drove the car hard (nothing pass 3.5k rpm) because i dont have a GREAT tune on it. well since ive had the car (before i installed the kit on the car) ive had a CEL the code is P300 random misfire... me and a friend just did a comperssion test on it, my # 1 cyc. has 115..... horrible right? min. should be at 145 from what ive read, all other cyc. have 180, ive noticed some oil on the plugs # 1 was pretty bad but not like wow... anyone got any advice? or had the same story? anything will help, expect for telling me to take it to the shop hahaah! thanks guys!

might be a bad piston ring, or it could also be something wrong with the valves.

if youre lucky, it'll just be a head gasket though... cheaper to fix...
