Sorry for my ignorence, but what does BMEP stand for? I'm really suprised that the engine can handle 25 lbs of boost with a stock gasket and head bolts. Over on the VW 1.6 side, I have always heard more than 15 or so would blow the gasket. There are guys over on vwdiesel.net that are blowing the stock gasket with studs at 25lbs of boost. When you say stock gasket, do you mean stock like original, or the stock replacement thats stainless?
