Unlock hidden horsepower and improve intake efficiency with the Skunk2 Thermal Intake Manifold Gasket for Honda B-Series VTEC engines, including B16A/B, B17A, B18C, and B18C5 (PR3 head). Designed specifically for Civic Si and Type R models, this high-performance gasket minimizes heat transfer from the cylinder head to the intake manifold—helping to keep intake air temperatures cooler.
Constructed from Skunk2’s advanced high-temperature thermal polymer material, it provides superior insulation, resists heat soak, and is ideal for racing, boosted, or high-compression setups. Gain up to 5% more power by reducing intake air temps and improving combustion efficiency.
