They say surface preparation is important for those gaskets. AF 460 is same thickness as 450 so wouldn't alter the cr

Hi all,
I can't make a decision on what to do with my compression ratio for my turbo engine.
What would you choose between fitting a cometic gasket (I know it is not ideal) and going for round chambers ?
Engine is fresh 1360 with Hypatec pistons actually running 10.3/1 comp ratio with 24.5 chambers ( cost me two weeks of work and two dremels).
I would need another 5cc somewhere to make it closer to a compression of 9/1 (not looking for a lot of boost).
Thanks for help I can sleep at night lol


Can you just machine some off the top of the pistons ?

And what fuel options do you have ?

9.85 @ 145mph
202mph standing mile
speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

I don't want to remove the pistons as the engine is fresh and running n/a very well. Only one option for the fuel here, 95ron. I always use an octane booster on my fillings
