Arrow What to look for when buying a used Evo?

Hey guys.. I checked all the newbie threads and tried searching, but I couldn't seem to find a thread on 'what to look for when purchasing a used Evo.' Sorry if I missed it..

I'm considering buying an '05 EVO & am just curious if there are any EVO specific trouble spots or issues to look for (other than the obvious cosmetic issues like the sunburnt spoliers and peely calipers).

Is there any subframe tearing issues or faulty bushing or suspention parts I should check out? I've read the EVO viii compression should be around 160psi +-5psi acorss all cylinders, is this accurate?
