Compression too low what head gasket to help raise it?
b16 with 8.8:1 C/r I want to bring it up before putting on the turbo. Is there a headgasket I could buy or strip the stock one or something?

remember when doing all this make sure you check your pistons to valve clearance. It does become tricky. i would just stick with the pistons you have and just boost more its makes the same pwer with a few more pounds of boost
