should i be using a OEM nissan Pulsar head gasket in my Ca18det or would a gasket from Fel-pro be a better choice other than a metal head gasket

does anyone have any advice as to why the fel-pro one might suck ass because it wasnt really designed for a turbo car

thanks

If you put a cheaper gasket on like Fel-pro on a turbocharged engine, it will blow out on you. Don’t cheap out and just get yourself a metal headgasket from Nissan or an aftermarket company like Apexi or something. You get what you pay for…

Read great things about cometic head gaskets, and they’re not badly priced. Think I’ll get one myself.

Cometic is a good gasket. You can get one from any of our sponsors on here. And I’m not saying Fel-pro is a terrible gasket, I’m just saying I’d go other routes. Besides, I doubt Fel-pro even makes a gasket for a CA18 and you can bet it will blow a pulsar gasket out right quick.
