Default Headgasket sizing

Hey guys! I am finally beginning to put my motor back together and I need to know how much each mm changes the compression ratio. My motor is a stock b18a1 with a t3/t4. I am shooting for a very reliable 250whp and keep in mind this is my first boost project and I am planning on tuning it my self. Any info would be greatly appreciated. THANKS guys

A stock headgasket will be fine? Would I be better off with a headgasket or are you just saying it will work? Also where is good place to buy turbo gaskets and oil lines. Also can I make my own turbo to manifold gasket out of gasket paper? Thanks

use a stainless turbo to manifold gasket, most any place that sells parts should be able to get you this.

we use stock head gaskets on our racecars which make 850 + hp and run in the 8's we have never had a headgasket problem...
