I wouldnt run the BC3's on stock bottom end. I think you need 11.5 c/r for those. NA power is way different from turbo. But you wont find a good reliable kit for 1100 unless you know someone.

made 206whp with a mostly stock B16A with 11.4:1 compression, OEM parts, a slight mill and flat valves.
Cams used were the early grind (smaller) M22's

I would have gone thinner with the head gasket, but since you did that, you now need a real tune on a dyno... If you really are looking for something to do.

I have read using 2 of the OEM or a thinner one. However it is much later for me and I am not thinking straight. Search the N/A Forums for the engine and head gaskets, you will find the answers. However I know just 1 gasket has issues... I just do not remember which.
