Default Cometic Head gasket thickness B16a Turbo?

Just about to order myself one but wondered if it really matters what year the car is for i.e my SiR2 is a 93 but the kit is for a 96? Aiming for around 300bhp on 14psi so also wondered if the 0.30 thickness is good enough?

Thanks guys.

Hope you plan on copper spraying the crap out of it too...if not then I wouldn't waste your time with Cometic.

I run nothing but Cometic...with and without the copper spray...no problems at all.
I'm not sure about your engine combo and if its been decked or resurfaced before but make sure you pistons dont stick out the hole. If they don't... I personally would run at least .040+ thick gasket.
