Default Hondata Gasket Install Review

Wow, amazing. I mean you don't feel a lot at first. But when this thing spools up at around 4500 RPM, I feel huge surge of power. I raced a Lancer EVO this morning and beat it by at least 5 cars. All thanks to my Hondata intake manifold gasket!

Yeah, right, anyways. Kind of a bitch to install. Oh, and realized for some reason I was missing a nut under one of the intake manifold runners. This was before I did the install so for some reason Acura figured I didn't need one. Making a trip to Copper State Nut and bolt this afternoon.

Performance wise I feel nothing. Maybe on the track the benefits would be better noticed.

hahaha i was like WHAT THE!!!

I think the most improvement from that gasket is when the car is sitting still, and the manifold and intake heat up from the motor. When you are moving, the airflow probably keeps the intake and IM cool but if the car is sitting, the gasket helps prevent that heat soak. Probably wont notice much, if any, once you are driving.
