well, anything that will lower your compression. You can go with an inline pro 2mm headgasket which will bring you down to 9:1.

I am using a cometic which is a a lot cheaper. Mine is .043" and it brings me down to 9.6:1. I cant give you any input on it since I just installed it and my car is still down waiting for the tranny to be swapped.

How many pounds were you boosting? How do you know its blown?

I didnt know the head gasket made that much of a decrease in compression. So the 2mm would bring it down to 9:1. Sorry about your car, I am going the same route except I got the revhard kit. HOpefully i get different results
