Intake Manfold Gasket

Another interesting product...

The idea of the gasket is that it reduces heat exchange from the cylinder head to the intake manifold.

I know the red devil has one, interested in any opinions on it.

Also after some info (I guess I'm asking JMac) about how complex it is to fit.

We keep these in stock and I run one on the VR6.
What info would you like?

Thats a good question.

Any relevant info or reviews for the 1.8T would be ideal, I'll have a look around.

Are you willing to post prices Courtney? Otherwise PM please.

Polo GTI engine is BJX model, Can you confirm if either small or large port versions are designed for out cars?

i PMed red devil before. it's the small port one.

what i'm more interested in is seeing real supporting numbers / data on the benefits of having this installed.

Agreed, thats what I'm looking for.

I think it would not offer much benefit on a dyno, but for stop-start driving, hopefully would help the cool air stay cool on its way into the engine.

I don't think this is a priority until the other heat / intake restrictions are dealt with, such as: TIP, Cone filter / Larger intake pipe, FMIC, etc.

A little info here (again, no numbers, just impression)

Intersting, figures not so sure but we will see when we run some Polos up here in April, Red devil is being run along with others. To be honest to the touch the manifold on the red devil felt the same as Shaneths who doesnt have one, i have a laser pointer which ill take to the dyno day.
If you fit one to the Pog you will have to delete the manifold support bracket or extend it if you have time.
