With ever improving tuning technology, the pressure increases found in the combustion chamber can become a problem. Improved gas sealing is a high priority when increasing the power output of any engine. Should be used with TODA forged pistons. The 0.6mm gaskets are the same thickness as stock and do not affect the compression ratio, but the 0.8mm and 1.0mm gaskets lower the compression ratio.
Size Compression B16A Compression B16B Compression B18C-R
0.6mm 11.6:1 11.0 : 1 12.3 : 1
0.8mm 11.4:1 10.8 : 1 12.1 : 1
1.0mm 11.2:1 10.6 : 1 11.9 : 1
TECHNICAL NOTE
Compression ratio numbers are with TODA Racing 81.00mm pistons.
