So an exhaust leak has appeared in my rb20det, to be honest unsure whether it's the exhaust manifold gasket (half are studs and half are bolts :?) or turbo outlet gasket (only sporting 3 out of the 6 bolts and studs. So im planning to replace all the gasket around the turbo and exhaust mani at the same time. So I'm swinging between either buying a few Cometic gaskets to cover my needs??? or buying a full complete OEM gasket kit (I know I don't need them all but its just as cheap)??? This car has been getting built for a few years now, so I do plan to get some power into her. I already have a cometic triple layer steel head gasket and arp head bolts. Basically my question is, if I plan to run say about 18-20+ pound of boost in the near future, which gaskets would hold the boost more efficiently and more safely? 'Cometic or OEM'?? I have done a Google Search and what not, but didn't get me the info I needed Thanks people
