What is the purpose of an intake manifold thermal gasket?

An intake manifold thermal gasket sits between the intake manifold and the cylinder head. Its main job is to act as a barrier, reducing the amount of heat transferred from the hot engine components to the cooler intake air charge.

Can this gasket be shipped to California?

No, this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.

What should I do before installing this gasket?

Before installing the new thermal gasket, it's recommended to clean both the intake manifold and the cylinder head mating surfaces. Ensure they are free of debris and smooth for a proper seal and optimal performance.

Product Details

This is the Weapon R intake manifold thermal gasket specifically for the 2005-2010 Scion tC with the 2AZFE engine. It sits between your intake manifold and the cylinder head, acting as a barrier to help reduce heat transfer. Keeping heat away from the intake charge can help maintain consistent engine performance, especially under demanding conditions.

This gasket is made from durable materials designed to withstand the temperatures and pressures found in the engine bay. A good thermal gasket helps prevent heat soak, which can make the air entering your engine less dense. Denser air means more oxygen for combustion, which is generally better for power and efficiency. It's a straightforward replacement part that can make a difference in how your engine breathes, especially if you're looking to optimize performance.

When replacing your intake manifold gasket, it's a good idea to inspect the manifold and cylinder head mating surfaces for any damage or warping. Ensure both surfaces are clean and smooth before installing the new thermal gasket to get the best seal and heat-blocking performance.
