11.1 compression on stock head gasket..
With a standalone ecu (not decided which yet), with forged internals on a B18C6 block and good tuning, what would be the limit that it could take it before the compression should be dropped?

Re: 11.1 compression on stock head gasket.. (Tinker219)
At the moment t3/t04e 60 trim 63a/r at 8psi on totally stock B18C6 running stock 11.1:1 compression.
I want to plan ahead so when the urge for more power comes and its time to build the bottom end, I want to know if I should consider putting a thicker headgasket in.
So, what is the hp limit before I should consider dropping the compression. I'd rather run lower boost with higher compression and fine tuning it with a standalone, but there will come a point where safety will be at its limits.
