Default Intake manifold insulater Kit

I have a Hondata intake manifold gasket. But this company took it a step further. A whole kit studs and all. http://www.outlawengineering.com

How is that any different from just the gasket? It looks like they just give you new bolts and all.

Looks like a waste, IMO.

Well, if you keep the coolant lines to the iac they give you an insulator there, Hondata doesnt. Also I dont think Hondata does the washers anymore (correct me if Im wrong) and they have them, the same for the TB gasket too. IMO the stock studs are too short with the thicker gaskets and spacers so new bolts is definetly a plus especially if you take the studs of to clean the old gasket material.

it works by stopping heat soak into the metal of the IM. this is a HUGE problem on mitsu VR-4's,
im not sure of the problem honda has with it, but hell any little bit helps in my oppinion esp. on a turboed car
