Compression tests often come up even...leak downs rarely do as it is a more definitive test with more control.
I've never seen one that even (minus the 14).
If the readings are correct you are a long way from a needed rebuild/top end. You could go another 100 k with those numbers or further all things being equal.
The other measurement is oil usage. Porsches use oil in varying amounts depending upon your driving and the top end health.
You don't appear to have worn compression rings but the oil rings are another issue as are the valve guide seals.
Any idea how much oil it uses in miles to a quart? Lots of opinions on how much is too much so you should use the search engine on that subject.
