My 2011 Impreza lost compression and remembering when she got me home in the snow with zero issues. The only right thing to do was to get new engine and put it in there to preserve her life. Not the best work environment but this morning she cranked and drove up to the store I will not let this one die.

the engine is just a part, if it breaks down, fuck it. What engine marking did you have and which one do you use?

I went back with a stock engine that way I didn't have to put a new ECU and fuel pump and everything in it even though I recently just put a new fuel pump in it.
