9.5:1 Compression head gasket. How do I fabricate?
Hi guys,
need some expert advise here. I'm thinking/trying to fabricate a head gasket that will allow me to lower my compression to 9.5:1. How thick of a gasket am I looking at and what are the best type of material to achieve my goal?
Really do hope to hear your expert advises.
Thanks!

Re: 9.5:1 Compression head gasket. How do I fabricate?
Hi guys,
sorry for the noobness and sorry for leaving out information that might help me in my quest.
Firstly first,
My trying to turbocharge my 2006 KIA Cerato (Aka spectra in the U.S). I really don't know whats the stock compression on my KIA, but guess its around 11ish, 12:1.
Why am I'm am trying to achieve a compression ratio of 9.5:1 is because I'm trying my very best to replica a turbokit being sold it Korea (will cost me soo much cheaper then buying it off them) and that turbo kit comes with a head gasket which will reduce the compression to 9.5:1.
Well, I hope i have explained myself better. And yes, I'm still doing lots of research over the net but information about such junk korean cars are soo little , HA!
Cheers!
