Yeah, most are only 3 layer. The 2 outer layers are for sealing and the center is basically a spacer.

Along with everyone else, I agree, it looks like a Titan knock-off and would chance it.

I wouldn't think there are many manufacturers attempting "knock off" headgaskets - this is probably from the same source as the branded gaskets, just sold by another company on cheapbay.

How do you know a 2mm thickness is going to meet your specific requirements? ;)

I'd stay away from it...there are a couple of brands (Cometic, Titan) that don't carry the hefty price tag an HKS or Greddy does. And they are proven on a 7M. Plus, you have no idea of the quality of the coating on the MHG...that coating is what makes the initial seal. You get what you pay for ;)
