    cometics work good but can seep water if the block and heads arnt perfectly flat and machined for them.it takes a lot to blow a stock gasket at 15psi of boost.whats your target boost level

    detonation will kill them quick as you will need 60lb seimens deka injectors and a good tune for 15psi.even with no water in the engine we still dont pop head gaskets at 15psi LOL check out some of the VB v6 turbo youtube videos to see what abuse stock gaskets can handle
