oem honda headgasket

[integra_gsr98]

ARPs are reusable. I myself have never run anything but OEM headgaskets. Hondas metal gaskets are the shit.

ARPs are re-useable, but I'd only trust them 2 times, won't this be the 3rd or 4th? And for timing, either upgrade your ems or if you want to keep the afc, then get a BTM.

^i believe has some toys like that somewhere. but was going to put them in sooner or later when he put the big. turbo on it

How much boost are you running?? I ran 7 lbs with no change in timing, what are you using for tuning??? Cuz anything like crome or whatever should take care of that, and just work your way up slowly while taking care of the timing at each level

Just put JB weld around all of the coolant passages and around the cylinders. Then bolt your head on. I guarentee you won't have a headgasket blow on you again. jk

Thats a V-8 thing Chris

dont know on the boost. but it was 10+ and he has an AFC

He's running 12 on AFC. Just turn the boost down to 9 or 10... a boost controller is 40 bucks...

[KA-T_240]

you can turn the boost down. if thats with no boost controller. then differant WG or spring is needed.
