Headgasket advise!?

Hello, I was wondering what the stock compression ratio is on a 03 evo 8.

Mine is bored over .40. My pistons are rated at 9.0-1 comp.

I am looking at the hks stopper headgasket. And there are 3 different sizes 1.0mm, 1.2mm, 1.6mm. they all have different compression ratios. I am wondering if it is better to have a lower compression ratio or what? Thanks
