leakdown tests are just as easy as compression tests, hook it up to the cylinder, hook it up to an airline, then read the gauge. anything more than a 10% leakage is iffy. anything more than 20% your going to want to redo the bottom end. if the leakage test is fine then throw on the supercharger!

also if a tester is only 75-100, it would prolly be cheaper to buy the tester than to have a shop do it.

I'll have a look around to see if I can have the leakdown test done, or if I can just do it myself.

I'll let you know what my results are and we can go from there.
