I might need an engine rebuild/new engine. The mechanic (who I trust) who looked at it said the compression in the different cylinders tested out at between 110 (the lowest) and 125 (the highest). He also said he was able to blow air through the valve. He doesn't specialize in Subarus and is suggesting I get a second opinion so I need to know of a shop, somewhere in the Twin Cities where I can bring it. I need them to confirm what's wrong and if it's fried, get it replaced. Where should I go?
It's an 03 WRX Wagon. Will it cost me an arm and a leg to bring it to the dealership? I mean, it's gonna cost an arm and a leg pretty much anyway, I'm just going for damage control at this point.
