Default Head Gasket ?

i just have question that prob has an easy answer...by going with a after market head gasket would i be able to up the boost on my integra...GSR...would a diff head gasket be worth the cost of putting it in or if i bother replacing it should i just do internals too...also does just getting head work done allow me to run more boost..so my question on that is how much boost can a stock bottom end hold "GSR" with head work

If get a different head gasket it could lower compression making it better for a turbo. Weither you should do head work while you are changing the gasket depends on what you want out of your engine... and more importantly if you have the money to do the work.

Welcome to the land of credit card debt Not unless you got tons of cash. Just got my second CC today, and its pretty much going to be maxed out within a few weeks (wideband O2, spark plug wires, spark plugs, ect.. ect.. ect.........)
