there are the imitation ones, but keep in mind that the Hondata is made out of a special material. I have seen the copy ones and they look the same but made out of some cheap similar plastic. So it may not have the same effect as the Hondata piece. You may be paying more for something that performs same or worse than an OEM gasket.

Keep that in mind when buying knock off IM gaskets.

We do not carry an intake gasket for the B18B at this moment, but we are in the process of making them.

Our gasket has been through extensive R&D before release. We have sold thousands of these gaskets and also distributed it to wholesalers (who probably sell to businesses like yourself) without any problems or complaint about it's material or effectiveness. I can assure you that our gasket is not made of "cheap similiar plastic"

might as well spend some extra $ and get the honda IM gasket while you're at it, it'll be worth it.

Why don't you just buy the gasket that was made for the motor? OEM isn't that expensive...

its not the cost, its that people have been finding a few extra ponies using these new gaskets that aparently don't allow as much heat to transfer through to the intake manifold. Has anyone had personal experince with either hondata or anr
