hey I am trying to figure out how to lower compression on my mini me build i have a d16a6 block and a y8 head...i know to get 8.5:1 pistons but what else can I do???saw something about big head gasket is there anything else or a place sells head gaskets for a good price that will lower compression...cause I know a y8 cause lots of compression

 

Technically you could get a thicker headgasket and lower your compression but the correct way to do it with the pistons,especially if you plan to boost,, as the thicker headgasket will decrease the quench area and also lower the static compression ,,and you want those things with a boosted honda..That is what I was taught anyway..
