If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

If anyone wants a Hondata intake manifold gasket for their ZC engine tell me because they do not make one right now and said if there is a group of people interested they might consider making them. So I really want one! so let me know if you do too so we can get a list going...

Probably would be $60

how much would these end up costing?

Do they really make a difference if temp. as they advertise? or it's bullshit like most product claims?

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

It reduces metal to metal heat exchange and has been proven to lower temps around 20 degrees. There were other posts discussing this and it sounded like they worked from others experiences.

Mostly reduces the rate at which the manifold heats up. It'll still get hot, but take much longer to do it.
Look at the info on Hondata.com, it makes more sense visually.

its bullshit, these gaskets done seal properly and you'll have vacuum leaks for days, ---- hondata

Check this option out instead. Good alternative to the race format hondata pieces.

I'm using it on my track car and am very pleased. Kit was really complete and the spacers are VERY thick :p. And for those worried about sealing issues, they come with gaskets for each side of the spacer.

looks cool, but i think ill just wick up the boost one pound for free and double their gains :P

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

and i'm sure that'll keep the charge temps down too ::)

not that but my new greddy 26x12x3 will :P

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

it won't help with heat soak there genius ;)

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

HOWR U GONNA HEAT SOAK THAT, ITS OVERKILL SON...

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

you're intake manifold temp has very little to do with your intercooler efficiency. these gaskets provide a barrieer between the head and the intake manifold so that all of the heat from the engine isn't transferred to the intake manifold better know as 'heat soak'. damn josh, all the time you've been here, all you've learned is basic 'what i need to bolt a turbo to my car' and stomp on the gas ----, i'm dissappointed :'( i don't care if you have a ------- 50x20x10 intercooler, your manifold is still going to be just as hot as your head......

jesus kev, i was only messin with ya, obviously i know what thermal blocking offers, :-X

and yes i know the i/m is is hot spot. geez, you made me feel sad for a second...

i was about to put your post count back to 0 and start calling you newb

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

hahah yeah dude, i obviously know a lil bit,

Re:If you want HONDATA IM gasket for a ZC ?
 

who needs a gasket like that when you can get a CF intake manifold PSH heat transfer forget about it
