[QUOTE="alvin24, post: 224063, member: 63"] WAH! 1.8mm on a GTi block... surely not drivable man!! U know stock gasket how much only ar? Its about 0.8mm paper gasket, so when screw on the head that time, the gasket gets slightly compressed to around 0.6 or 0.7mm... u put 1.8mm gasket surely low end can't drive for nuts... engine response will be super-bad! You trying to shove in turbo kit is it? Advice for you... leave the gasket alone, drive with 0.4bar.. or 0.5bar if u're really daring. Its really much much more drivable... 1.8mm is too thick man... even for a GSR. I think GSRs that up boost also go up to 1.2mm metal gasket only. IF you were to really wanna go for lower compression also, i suggest just put in 1.0mm metal gasket... should be more than enuff... that will already kill the drivability at low revs (ie: city driving)... but will probably allow u to boost up to 0.7 bar or so. Just my 2cents... [/QUOTE]
