since im going turbo in a year, would it be ok if i changed my head gasket now? some like 80mm on a N/A? or would this cause a problem? keep in mind i really no nothing about engine break downs and how they work, im still learning.

if you change your headgasket to a thicker one you will lower compression. The lower compression without boost will cause a significant drop in power. 80mm is a tad big though, In fact, thats in the range of exhaust piping sizes. For ideal compression, go with a 1.6mm-2mm headgasket.
