Default stock HG or cometic l c/r for new shortblock?

I just bought a stock b16 short block from a friend, I plan on keeping it stock for now. currently I dont have a power goal, whatever 10psi gets me (10psi wg spring) since the head is off should I go with stock honda gasket or a cometic low compression gasket?

setup:
aem ems
sc61 turbo
780cc
255 lph

Right now I am more concerned about longevity than power.
