if it works then a 5% hp increase would mean 189hp for GTS owners (i suppose more gains with people who already have intake and exhaust) eek...but i'm skeptical this little piece of plastic does what it does...or at least does it as well as hondata claims thumbsdown. what do you guys think? idunno

i think it's bogus! just a intake gasket can get you 5% hp increase? too good to be true.. it's just like that "Tornado" sh*t, i bought one and notice NOTHIN'. grin

The Hondata heatshield gasket has nothing but great reviews from other Si owners. It significantly lowers intake charge temp.


My lugnuts require more torque than my Honda produces.

yeah, 5% of net seems a little much. perhaps a volunteer is needed...
