I should of changed it when I put the turbo on, but now its blown.

Thanks in advance for any help

 

testing sig

 

ok ill try this

 

well, anything that will lower your compression. You can go with an inline pro 2mm headgasket which will bring you down to 9:1.

I am using a cometic which is a a lot cheaper. Mine is .043" and it brings me down to 9.6:1. I cant give you any input on it since I just installed it and my car is still down waiting for the tranny to be swapped.

How many pounds were you boosting? How do you know its blown?

I was running 6psi...Coolant in the oil...Mositure where the head hits the block...Not 100% sure, but close

 

I didnt know the head gasket made that much of a decrease in compression. So the 2mm would bring it down to 9:1. Sorry about your car, I am going the same route except I got the revhard kit. HOpefully i get different results

 

What is the compression ratio of a stock GSR?
