Hondata Gasket installed...
So I swapped the manifold. However I had to remove the TB and the IACV. I ordered all new gaskets and am going to replace them one at a time.
Do I need to use Hondabond on the Hondata gasket mating surfaces? There is no mention of it on Marcucci's install how to.

Have you retorqued the bolts on the manifold after running the engine the 1st time?

Thanks Chris.
Well it seems to start up and idle normally. I need to drive it...tomorrow.
I think I still need to retorque the bolts from the head to manifold though.
And thanks Billman250.

Did you notice any level of improvement from doing this mod? It seems to make sense and is clearly affordable, but I don't want to take the intake manifold off if there is no real world improvement.
Thanks
Thanks

No need to use Hondabond. Won't hurt, but I have installed dozens of these on S2k's without it for a total of several hundred thousand miles driven with no issues.
