I have driven turbo cars with low compression ratios and found them to suffer low RPM lag.... Wouldn't it be better to install a self tuning device like the AEM A/F/I to set the mixture and timing than installing a thicker head gasket that will lower the compression ratio?.... I can see where a thicker gasket would be beneficial if you were pumping some really big boost and planning on keeping the revs up all of the time in a purpose built racing engine that wouldn't see much street use..... If that is the case you may have to make (or have one made) of solid copper, using a stock gasket as a template.
