Want to get MHG and BOLTS Suggestions
- Thread starter Sonex2000

Cometic for the first and ARP for the second. These are common parts and brands, carried by virtually every performance shop, and several of the forum vendors as well.
i have only used hks MHG and arp bolts on both of my rebuilds and havnt had issue with them so there are my suggestions
Titan = Cometic doesn't it?superiorsupra said:

I use a HKS 2.0 Stopper and ARP bolts. You really don't need to spend as much on a MHG as I did if your power goals are fairly modest. Those previously mentioned will do just fine, I'm sure.

thats a common misconception. look at the recommended RA values of the titan motorsports headgasket compared to the cometic. off the top of my head, the titan is like an RA of 10, wheras the cometic recommends less than RA of 50.

ARP's are the only way to go... *are there any other brands?*
Cometic is a great mhg, and the tolerances are pretty lienant... They can take alot of boost and hp too... I believe Louis over at Paradise Racing is running 40psi on a Cometic... I used a Cometic in my last supra, and it worked great!
This Supra I have now has an HKS 2.0mm Stopper MHG, and this one is suppose to be the end all, be all mhg for our cars.. I would hope so, this thing is over 300 bucks, lol... But so far, she's holdin 15 pounds of boost like a CHAMP!

the different size headgaskets give you either a higher or lower compression depending on what you wantyalc said:
the only reason i know is because i was origionally going to buy a titan, but realized what RA value it required compared to the cometic, thanks to ideal supra. (he pointed it out in a thread here on SM)
