Smoke and boost

Smoke and boost
I recently have smoke when releasing the gas pedal. After research I heard that this is a valveseal problem.
Can I safely boost without replacing the seals? The car is currently not boosted. But I want it to be.
Its a Honda B16A2 engine with about 100k's on it. I wont be boosting above 7psi.

Anyways, my compression test came out low for cyl #3 160psi while the rest was 200psi. I think I have a bent valve.
I got an appointment for the 30th of August at the Honda dealer for a leakdown test.
