Idrees Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 What's the full engine and what turbo are you using? 1.2mm is the most popular choice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Sorry to Hi jack this but can a 1.2mm athena be used again? See minimal miles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza-Ben Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 What's the full engine and what turbo are you using? 1.2mm is the most popular choice.Has max speed rods, will have 74.5mm wossner pistons,arp bolts, acl bearings etc , nothing to major and will either be td04 or td05 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Mainly road use I assume? My personal preference would be 1.2mmWill I know a few people who have reused them mate so it should be fine especially if its done minimal miles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AdamB Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 As thin as possible would be best. What engine management you going to be using? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Turk Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I would be going thin too. I know theres a 0.6mm head gasket. High compression turbos seem to be the thing of the future. Especially if your not after silly boost Quote Link to post Share on other sites
