You should get proper custom low comp pistons. Getting regular compression ones then using a thick head gasket is a waste of money and as much of a hack as just the thick gasket, although it will be a bit stronger. | |

It looks like theres alot of oil over the front of the engine, the turbo blades look like there coked up with black soot aswell, a good clean sould sort that out. | |
