   regarding my vtr turbo, im going for a decompression plate and metal gasket,
   what mm decomp plate? 1.0mm or 2.0mm
   
   and what mm head gasket?
   
   will these 2 products fit on with standard length head bolts?
   
   if any one could shed some light on this?

   Depends on a few things but mostly on how much boost you wish to run.

   Yes very much so. Its absolutely critical. You cant just stick any old turbo on and expect it to work well or even at all. Though saying that you don't have to be exact on spec as you can go for best fit most of the time but for it to work well you do have to match everything with one another.

   GMC motorsport have lots of very good reviews, give them a ring and they'll give you brilliant advice! I've heard more good reviews on these guys than any other company!
