thats why you should set the boost cut limit at a safe setting setting

i know my boost cut saved my b20b/b16 last night, my wastegate diaphragm was blown and i hit 12 but boost cut saved me

Whomever "they" is, please give me their number so I can personally tell them that they are flaming ******* who need to stick to selling goped parts with no technical advice involved. You will seep tiny amounts of oil and coolant over time with a copper headgasket. It is not a leak, think of how a valvecover sometimes gets barely moist with oil right at the seal and airborne dust adheres to it and makes it "mossy" and inch or so around the gasket seal. That's the sort of leak you deal with, it's practically nothing. It is not leaking coolant as you go down the road.

Besides, you can get an MLS gasket for your engine. This is the third time I've told you this. Why the ---- would you want to run a copper gasket when MLS is available??
