Head Gasket

[lordnikon_04]

I need a new headgasket and i don't want to get a factory one put in because i want to push higher boost in the near future and i want one that will hold. Does anybody have an opinion on the cometic or HKS 1mm headgaskets? I wanna know some personal experiences and which one is better. Money is not an issue.

do some more research the stock cosmetic head gasket can hold an insane amount of power.....but if you really want a metal one.get an mitsu metal head gasket..those work as well

I would go with the cometic head gasket. We put one on my buddies talon after he blew his stock one and it worked great. You can't beat it for the price either. You can pick them up for under 100 bucks and they will hold whatever you throw at them (as long as it's under 30 pounds of boost) He ended up making 330 whp and 350 wtq at 19 pounds on a 16G and the stock sidemount without any problems with the head gasket.

That's definately what I am going to be going with when I pull my head of next time. Good luck with the gasket swap.
