Default Anyone Tried This? - Intake Manifold Gasket

http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/...productID=1394

Has anyone tried this intake manifold gasket from ecs tuning? They say it prevents the conduction of heat from the engine block to the intake manifold, thus decreasing air intake temps by 20-30 degrees. It sounds like a good easy mod as an addition to or as an alternative to a fmic. The dyno also shows an increase of about 10HP and 6 ft-lbs of torque. For only $55, I might try it and post my results. Anyway, I just wanted to know if anyone has tried this and if its worth it.

Also, this link is for nDBW cars. They also have one for DBW.

Wow...that all sounds good. I would be interested in hearing what you think after you install it.
