Hello and a very warm, welcome to TorqueCars from me the admin!
So sorry for my very slow reply, my mum recently died and on top of that I've injured my back and shoulder so couldn't use a mouse for weeks!
I'm getting back into the swing of things now, but have to take it slowly. I'll try and get back to answer questions more fully, and I've got a ton of article updates going up soon.
I'm sure you'll fit in just fine and look forward to Talking Cars with you.
What mods have you done already and which ones do you recommend? What things would you like us to cover in our articles on the main site? - Feedback from our members greatly shapes what content we research and provide.
It sounds like a good plan, not sure a gasket will lower compression enough, especially as you'll need to skim the head to refit. You'll also have a lot of work to do with fuelling upgrades, and mapping, which you'll need to go the aftermarket ECU route if I remember correctly.
Please let me know what you turn up and find out yourself, I'm eager to pass tuning tips on to our readers by updating our articles.
Keep reading the articles on our site and this forum... you'll pick up loads of good common sense tips and don't be afraid to post questions, were all here to share our knowledge and experience.
