i want to see these "dyno proven" graphs for a gasket. you do know the heating properties of materials, correct? you should then be able understand how that is a load of crap. its such a thin peice that its not going to slow down heat transfer at all. unless its a three inch thick gasket. you will see no change. i cant beleive what the kids think will give them horsepower these days. next, are you going to change out your muffler bearings for some turbo ones? or are you going to go with the Ported and polished shifter knob, balanced and blueprinted sun visors, turbocharged A/C condensor, drilled and slotted cold air intake, forged h-beam pushrods, DOHC steerinng rack, forged aluminum seats, aerodynamic tail lights, custom 12 speaker PA system, TIG welded fiberglass sway bar end links, lawn mower starter motor, and "Powered by Honda" window banner?

He did used to drive a alltrac celica. Those make some good numbers, so i am willing to bet he knows a little

I drive a scion, but I used to drive a RX-7. Not always about what you rock now, but what you have too. Not riding you boostjunkie, just saying is all

i have one from that canadian company that makes the same shit as Hondata. it was like 25 bux and the only good thing about it, is that it is reusable.

so my guess is you have never owned one. I have one on my S2k and my IM is cooler than it used to be without it. So in theory, the air should be cooler due to lack of heat transfer between the IM and the head. Some cars benefit more than others.
