Can anyone tell me what a standard S2 head gasket will take boost wise etc.
i need to buy a new one, but not sure if i will need an uprated one or standard one.

Also wheres the best place to buy one from?? Burton??

 

Go to Ford and get one, they are the best gasket

 

Are Felpro not meant to be quite good also?

 

Felpro are shit and not worth the money

 

Any reason why?

 

I went thorugh 2 of them coz they kept failing for no reason, get a Ford one and you wont have any more troubles

 

Felpro are w4nk. . . dont bother.

go for a Payen FORD gasket!!!!

 

 

so will the ford one take high boost then?? and how much will it take before it will fail??

and any idea how much a ford one cost??

 

It will take a load of boost and i think its about Ł30

 

Is 34psi high enough?

 

ARE FELPRO THAT BAD IM RUNNING 20 PSI ON MY 1.9 RS HAD NO PROBS SO FAR.WHATS SO GREAT ABOUT THE FORD GASKET NOT TRYING TO START AN ARGUMENT JUST INTERESTED AS TO WHY THE FORD ONES SO GOOD.

 

Supurb, that well with in my car then and Ł30 not bad at all. i will take a trip to fords then.

cheers peps

 

Felpro are pants. Mine failed between the fire rings mid tear up with a Porka on the dual carriageway

Been on a genuine Ford since and no probs whatsoever at 25psi
