    clio 16v turbo

    would a standard head gasket last long with a turbo? it would be on a show car that would only be driven a few times a year.

    Can see the point scrimping tbh. If you gong to sell at somepoint you may as well go the whole hog.

    Whats the point paying for something 5 times the cost when it does the same job, or in the case of a head gasket not the same, if you got bad fuelling the stronger gasket will hold up against that to the point you start damaging something else. I was running 15psi on standard head gasket and now engine getting a refresh and putting a standard gasket on again and will be looking at upping it over 20psi just for fun

    standard gasket should be fine if the cars mapped properly.
