Default hondata intake manifold gasket installation

hi, just about to install the hondata IMG, and i read the guide by Marcucci that the W-GASKET, MUFFLER and WASHER, SEALING (12MM) are required.

has anyone done the installation without replacing them ??? or they are a MUST ??

The risk is a fuel leak. You can try without them and if you have no leak, then you are good. If you do have the leak you will need to replace them...it takes several days to a week for most dealer parts department's to get them in since they don't stock them...so your car may be down for a while until they arrive.

Safer to order in advance and use the new ones. Cheap insurance unless you have another car to drive.
