I really can't think of a good reason NOT to do a compression and leak down test on a 993.
just my .02.

Another thumbs up for TRE. Seemed thorough and I passed based on what they found. Callas is also supposed to be very good but a little pricey IMO.

Hi all, some closure here. I took the car to 200 N. Motor Works off of La Cienega. Mark was great to work with, thorough, and yes, he did the leakdown and compression tests (the car was great).
