More details

The engine has 100,000 miles, I do not have a service history. I have had 2 seperate shops do the compression and leak down, with similar results (1 cyl leaking from rings, 1 cyl from the exhaust valve). I plan on keeping the car a long time. I also plan on driving it hard, on a racetrack and autocross, not so much puttering around town (though I will be "touring" with it).

This mechanic does do racing stuff, so maybe the springs and valves are overkill. I thought pretty much everyone recommended replacing the head studs and rod bolts.
