The lower compression ratio a thicker head gasket would give you is marginal, and wouldn't make any difference on your potential boost level. Not worth it.

you want to lower compression if you want to boost at a high psi..... the inline kit comes with a 3mm head gasket...
and getting a thicker head gasket will make a difference on your potential boost level....

Yes, I know FI cars like lower boost (when you do it the half-ass'd way), but a head gasket ain't gonna make that much of a difference. And if you think you'll be at 521whp because you use the same head gasket, you'll be in for quite a surprise.
Oh, and just for the record, I'm at 548whp, 507wtq on 93 pump. No boost. No spray.
