What is heat soak and how does this gasket help?

Heat soak is when your intake manifold absorbs heat from the hot engine block and cylinder head. This gasket is made of a special thermal material that acts as an insulator, reducing that heat transfer. Cooler intake air is denser, which can lead to a small horsepower increase.

Does this gasket come with new hardware?

This product is a direct replacement for the OEM intake manifold gasket. It is designed to be used with your existing intake manifold bolts and hardware. Please refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific recommendations.

Can I ship this part to California?

Product Details

If you're working on the intake system for your 1994-2001 Acura Integra, especially if you're aiming for improved performance, this thermal intake manifold gasket from Skunk2 Racing is a smart addition. It's designed to replace your stock gasket and plays a key role in managing heat transfer between the cylinder head and the intake manifold.

This gasket is made from a high-temperature thermal polymer material. Its main job is to minimize heat soak, which is when components absorb heat from surrounding hot parts. By reducing the heat that gets into your intake manifold, it helps keep the incoming air charge cooler. Cooler air is denser, meaning more oxygen can get into your engine's cylinders for combustion, which can lead to a noticeable increase in horsepower.

This is a direct replacement for your OEM gasket and is a popular choice for Integras used for racing, weekend track days, or even just spirited street driving. It's a straightforward way to get a little more out of your B18C1 engine.
