9.7 is good i would go oem honda w/copper spray that is a nice cp ratio to have you will spool faster make more power with less boost and torque will be fairly impressive

I was thinkin the .036 should put me around a nice 9.51. I was just wondering if you could go to thick on a head gasket

thick headgasket offsets decked blocks and shaved heads, easier to just run oem thickness
