With that little bit of boost it realy does not matter. Just make sure you have good head studs and that they are properly installed. In most cases where head gaskets fail it is not the gaskets fault. The cometic is a great gasket and we were able to run 70 psi of boost on it with no issues.

Damn at the camp1320 hate.

And I have used GE overbored OEM gaskets for all of mine, and never had an issue with them unless it was a failure somewhere else that took the HG with it.
