Product Details

The Cometic C4978-040 is a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for Volkswagen 1.8L and 2.0L 16-valve TFSI EA888 engines. This precision gasket features an 83mm bore diameter and .040" (1.02mm) compressed thickness, making it ideal for both stock rebuilds and performance applications.

Key Features:

  • Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction for superior sealing and durability
  • 83mm bore diameter designed for VW EA888 engine platform
  • .040" compressed thickness provides reliable combustion sealing
  • Includes Active Valve System (AVS) provision for variable valve timing compatibility
  • Engineered for both 1.8L and 2.0L TFSI turbocharged engines
  • MLS design accommodates thermal expansion and engine movement

Cometic's MLS gaskets feature multiple layers of stainless steel with advanced coating technology to provide maximum sealing under extreme temperatures and pressures. The gasket's construction allows for slight movement between the head and block while maintaining an effective seal, making it well-suited for turbocharged applications where cylinder pressures are elevated.
