Stu Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Is there a problem with an OEM head gasket, or perhaps your new spec requires something better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongo Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) would i be right in saying... if your turboing and your changing the head gasket why not fit a decomp plate while your there and run a bit more boost. this would lower the cr and you would have less chance of detonation/pinking etc..
