A thicker headgasket is a bad band-aid, if you want to go high boost better build the engine and use lower CR pistons.
The biggest enemies on boosting this car will be:
- DI head
- Space / packaging
- Lead time to having a decent standalone system available

Nice tip!
What about mill the block? Is this safe and not that costly?
A set of after market pistion+rod. But those are just over my budget limit.
I'm considering an used BMW M3 E90/92 now... which is... shame..
