Parts for RB25DET rebuild

[Rileymax]

So I'm rebuilding my s2 Rb25det for my rb s14 project, just wondering if the oem gasket kits are good or if there are any improved aftermarket alternatives? I'll be buying ARP studs and a cometic headgasket but will I be right with everything else OEM?

Pretty new to the import world so apologies if this is a dumb question

Depends on what your kW goal is. If you want to run more than 1.2 bar boost, the OEM head gasket needs to replaced.

Hmmm. Odd advice. And he already mentioned using a Cometic gasket
