The Cometic C14145-080 is a premium Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for Audi 2.5L 20-valve turbocharged TFSI engines with DAZA and DNWA engine codes. This high-performance gasket features Cometic's MLX (Multi-Layer Stopper) construction, providing superior sealing and durability for both stock and modified applications.

Key Specifications:

• Bore diameter: 83.5mm (3.287 inches)
• Compressed thickness: .080 inches (2.03mm)
• Multi-Layer Stopper (MLX) steel construction
• Designed for Audi 2.5L 20v TFSI engines (DAZA/DNWA codes)

Cometic's MLX gaskets combine multiple layers of stainless steel with strategically placed stopper layers to control gasket movement and maximize sealing pressure around the combustion chamber. The embossed stopper layer provides additional support in critical areas, making this gasket ideal for high-performance applications, forced induction setups, and engines running elevated boost levels. The .080-inch thickness makes this gasket suitable for applications requiring compression ratio adjustments or accommodating mild deck surface variations.

This gasket is compatible with Audi RS3, TTRS, and RS Q3 models equipped with the 2.5L five-cylinder turbo engine, as well as select performance builds using these engine platforms.
