What is the main benefit of a thermal throttle body gasket?

A thermal throttle body gasket acts as a barrier to reduce heat transfer from the engine into the throttle body and intake manifold. This helps keep the incoming air cooler, which can lead to a slight horsepower increase due to denser air charge.

What vehicles does this Skunk2 throttle body gasket fit?

This gasket is designed for the 2006-2011 Honda Civic and the 2004-2008 Acura TSX. It features a 72mm opening and is compatible with K-Pro Series manifolds using an RBC pattern or OEM throttle bodies.

Product Details

If you're looking to get the most out of your 2006-2011 Honda Civic, especially if you're pushing it on the track or the street, a thermal throttle body gasket can make a notable difference. This gasket from Skunk2 Racing is designed to go between your throttle body and the intake manifold, acting as a barrier against engine heat.

The main job of this gasket is to reduce heat transfer. By keeping heat from the engine bay away from the throttle body and the air passing through it, you get cooler intake air. Cooler air is denser, meaning more oxygen can get into your engine for combustion. This can lead to a small but measurable horsepower gain, particularly in situations where the engine bay gets hot. It's made from a high-temperature thermal polymer material that can handle the heat and is built to last.

This particular gasket has a 72mm opening and is designed to fit K-Pro Series manifolds with an RBC pattern, as well as OEM throttle bodies. It's a straightforward part to install when you're already working on your intake system.
