Default Hondata s2000 Intake Gasket

Hi, is there anywhere in the UK that supplies the Hondata intake gasket?
If not, how much will it be to import one?

can't tell you if there's any uk suppliers, but if you do import one from the states it shouldn't be too crazy.

it's a very light, very thin gasket. you could probably just ship it over in a manilla envelope really. only weighs a pound or two.

lots of info to search on for the img. search will answer all your questions. basically it lowers the IM temp because it's a thicker, teflon gasket instead of the oem paper thin gasket.

worth it? i'd say so. tests have shown 5+ hp regained with the gasket. i say regained, because it only stops you from losing power to the heat, doesn't "add" horsepower as so many put it.

not really worth the time to install it though unless you have other reasons to remove the IM. it's a pain in the ass. the work vs. worth trade off isn't high enough unless you are doing something else as well like i said.

i installed one on mine, but my friend was already ripping my IM apart so we could port match it to my spoon tb. otherwise, i never would have installed it. it's a solid piece though.
