If you are confident that you used the compression gauge properly then yes, you roasted something.

Before tearing the engine down check first that the timing belt hasn't jumped a cog. If it did it will greatly affect the compression results. If the belt is OK you have no choice but to pull the head and see what's up.

I can provide engine teardown instructions if you need them.
