hello everyone this is my first posting so forgive me for any screw ups and awesome site by the way you guys rock. anyways my question is i have a mini me swap with a z6 headgasket. my comp. is at 10.22.1 according to the d series calc. so i was wondering if i could swap it with a b7 headgasket and my comp. will bump down to 9.5.1 it says which would be safer for boost.
thank you guys

Why does everyone insist on being cheap in the most important things, buy the right head gasket for your car, done ---- with it thinking another will work, its not a great idea to do this because a head gasket is vital.

He wants to make sure that his engine does not pop so he is using an inferior cheap product to make sure that it blows rather than the engine, so he is pretty much doing a stupid *** thing. I have heard some good ones but this one takes the cake, how much does it cost to resurface the head and possibly the block? You will most likely need to drain and flush the coolant, remove oil and get new stuff every time you blow a head gasket, but many other things can and will occur. If you make the headgasket pop, you are just asking for a whole ---- storm of problems, do everything right the first time, this is not hack my turbo, its home made turbo, things can still be decent, do not cheap out or you will end up like every other tool who does, with a shitty car that is not near reliable.
