Default Outlaw Engineering thermobloc spacers gasket kit

Anyone hae any feedback on these? theyre similar to the hondata manifold gasket but this comes with ones for the tb, iavc also. Its 99 bucks for a complete set which is a pretty good deal.

I had 0 fitment issues and everything worked great. No datalogs of before/after but its noticebly cooler to the touch. Plus it comes with gaskets for the spacers and all the hardware, makes for a nice install.

I had it on my b16, it worked good. I did have the intake manifold bolts back out quite a few times. But everything else was good. I recommend blue locktite on the IM bolts.

I don't have any dyno plots for you, this was installed along with an aebs manifold and lots of other changes... so nothing that would be usefull. But the burn-o-meter (my hand) saw drastic changes in the temp of the IM under sustained and/or shorter runs. I'll probably eventually bypass the coolant to the IM and the IACV, but for now I just run all the spacers and was very happy with the quality and fitment of it all.

This is on a car that isn't seeing much driving lately, but has been a full time daily driver and roadcourse abused car. Everything is holding up nicely.

can you touch the manifold without being burned? can you keep your hand on it?

mines works good even after long drives on hot summer days the manifold is still pretty cool. i mean its not ice cold but you can rest your hand on it and not get burned.

I ordered mine and it came three days later all nicely packaged, it looks great ant ten times better than the hondata gasket, not to mention thick as hell. I plan on getting everything port matched and buttoning it up to the motor when i put my head on

The reason I ask is because the stock throttle body gasket for the DC2R looks like this:



Notice that the Outlaw spacer is missing two holes. I wonder if it makes a difference?

It's probably not the dc2 one then, they all look so similar. I had 0 issues with fitment and gaskets matching when I used it.
