MrGasket MLS headgaskets.
Anybody using them?
I'll be using it for street/low boost appcation (under 10psi). Actually I ordered it already 'cause it was cheaper that an OEM one.

But of course summitracing said "Oh rats looks like the order already went out" I only ordered it a couple of hours ago.
Sigh...and I've been told an old friend of mine works at a local honda dealship.
1.8T_EG - I'd go oem for street/low boost use, cooper for fully built racing applications.

Ok- since it has been shipped. Why isn't it junk?
I'm thinking of returning it if I can get a good price on an OEM gasket from a friend.
Use it? Why?

Mr. Gasket MLS head gaskets were designed as a high performance upgrade to the stock head gasket. The quality of materials is also much higher.
I've had one in my Integra for almost a year running 16psi.

Back from the DEAD!!!!
anyone run a Mr. Gasket MLS setup?
Apexi seems to have stopped bringing the 1.5mm headgasket over...this seems like the next best thing...however i am not sure if it can accomodate anything more than a 75mm bore
I just want to know about experiences with these, Cometic is out of the question.
I think this is cool. I just don’t know who has used it…
It’s been out for a while, since like ’02, enough time for it to be deemed legit or not.

a question that popped up for me is-
what are the 3 layers WITHOUT any spacers, thickness-wise? It tells you the spacer thicknesses, just not what the base layers are…from the compression ratio chart in the link, I figured out that the 3 layers by themselves is almost the thickness of a .037 honda gasket, about .035 I guess, since it has the 3 layer combo without spacers yielding a 9.2 CR on a stock z6…which is about right.…then you just add 1 or 2 spacers in any combination to that…pretty sick.
if I am correct, that means just the .5mm spacer would make the total thickness about 1.5mm, or 1.4478mm lol
