It isnt a kit no, Its up to you, Personally when a headgasket change costs so much in labour anyway, and pretty much all the other HG's out there dont fit 100% percent, if there was a Head gasket that coped with over 2 times the standard power all day long i'd get it every time  ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

Standard Pug gasket is around £40 and is the MLS.  Fitting a non O.E. Head gasket is asking for trouble IMO... ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Phone local Pug dealers, the head gasket is indeed £39, but they dont do a head gasket set, just a whole engine gasket kit for £99.________________________________________ danposs86's GTi-6 |
