Second Depstech I've owned and really happy with both. We have a Subi with 0 compression in cylinder 3. Went through leakdown, holds 10pis at 90psi. Can hear intake valves opening and closing, no sign of headgasket issue. So rather than pulling the exhaust to look at the exhaust valves, I used this as a chance to grab the articulating head. Worth every penny and great learning experience for my students....

That’s impressive, thanks for the review. But damn buck, that *****! I’ve never seen a valve break like that. It’ll be interesting to see what you find that caused it.

It's a friend of my wife's car. 2014(?) Impreza turbo, 190k, had headgaskets done 50k ago. Not sure what he is going to do, I'm trying to find a reason to NOT take on another project but it's a really clean car for this area, like very little rust. 6 speed too, could be a fun little 4 door sedan.......
