already asked that questions.. I don't think the HG dose much on the compression side. Best way to go is LC pistions.. IMO

I looked into it after ny asked it here. Came down to not enough compression to really help (afterall, once you lower compression you'll just want to raise boost to make up for it, hehe).

And its a PITA to change the HG on our cars, so while it's all apart you might as well put new rods and pistons in that are lower comp.

I think GReddy was the one that makes thicker gaskets for us though...
