Noob help in FC purchase
I am looking into getting a nice FC that has an 13b re. It has a stand alone microtech and no exhaust. Says the waste gate is sticking so no boost and just needs tuned. The car will run, so my question is will a compression test tell me the condition of the motor or could there be other things I need the check?

The FAQ has how to buy guides that provide a lot of information. However since this is a modified car, all bets are off. Sounds like you are buying someone else's half-done project which can be problematic. Quality of work and how many corners were cut is a major factor.
