Default swaped in new head, gasket leaks. turbo mini me

so i started putting together this motor a few monts ago. never got it running. i guess the first z6 head i had was fucked. i am using a a6 block. the first time i put it together i put a new z6 headgasket, water pump and timing melt. the car might of ran for a total of less than 30 mins before i pulled the head. i do junk cars for a lving and came across a 95 ex that i knew the motor ran good. so i pulled that head, cleaned everytihng real good. i figured i could get away with the same headgasket. (felpro from autozone). well, the motor runns good! but once i added coolan to the radiator is immediatly proceded to the oil pan. so i am going to pull it apart and do it right this time.

is it worth getting a cometic head gasket? are there better hg out there? what would be good for a turbo mini me? i am searching around but really dont see much about turbo mini me's.

ya the paper gasket from the a6 paper gaskets sticks to everything. Im a huge fan of having a head decked too. For 40-50 bucks no more hg problems. Rape on it and enjoy with no worries
