Default Head Gasket Poll

So I'm running a b16 bored to 81.5mm, around 10.5-11:1 compression and will be boosted hopefully soon. (cylinder pressure is 230-235 psi). Which headgasket would you all use?

Gayest thread ever....

10.5-11 CR

First choice - Mugen 2 layer

Mugen 2 layer would increase compression on an already high compression motor and you want to boost this thing?

I really hope you have a damn good tuner, a great fuel management system, and some low boost.

High compression + low boosted Shitsubishi TD05 turbo = waste of time.

High CR and boost, prepare to have lots of money cuz that engine is gonna blow at some point. Even if you say "I'll run low boost" when the first BMW passes you, you're gonna go and adjust the boost higher and higher and then something is gonna blow.
