<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by b00sted_hatch &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote"> the thickness of the cometic headgasket it .030mm. is that one for N/A or boost? if its for N/A what thickness headgasket should my brother get? </TD></TR></TABLE>

also, i believe cometic uses inches
so its probably .030 inches which equals .76mm

that is thicker than a stock oem headgasket which would serve to lower compression

Would that Cometic Headgasket drop the CR to about 10:1? maybe lower?
