is the car under warranty? if so i wouldnt do anything until youve spoken to the guy you bought it from otherwise you might invalidate your warranty

ouch - looks like ur gonna need a new turbo too! i cant see it surviving that!

eh...hang on...5 tips gone...how can u tell that? I mean a compression test cant tell u if you have 5 tips gone. It can tell u if one tip is out, or if 2 tips have gone on a rotor. Basically if im thinking this right a comp test will tell you definitely if youve lost 1,2,3 or 4 tips. Theres no way you can tell if an engines lost 5 tips as opposed to 4 without pulling it out (basically if your engines lost 5 tips, then the compression test would be similar to if it had lost 4 (assuming 2 on each)
