Angry Compression test...

my motor hit 6.7kpa on all faces on front rotor, and 0-0-4.6 on rear according to the rotary shop, car still pulls very hard but i think it's due to boost creep, the shop told me not to wrry about it but apparently i should have.. oh well here comes a Jspec, she still drives starts up fine so i'm going to drive her like this until she totally dies. I'm just sad..

I wouldn't run it with a blown apex seal, which is what you have. It will tear up the housings.
