Headgasket modification

I know how some of you only run certain layers of the HG to up compression. What layer do you remove or do you only run one layer ? If so which layer ?

On a oem honda hg people usually remove the middle layer. I'm not sure you want to remove more than that.

Re: Headgasket modification (94Vtecluder)

you HAVE TO remove 2 lyers, the middle and an outer. otherwise it wont seal.

you only use 1 outer layer.
