P2R 350Z Thermal Throttle-Body Gasket
P2R Power Rev Racing’s throttle-body gasket helps reduce intake air temps by isolating direct contact of the throttle body to the intake manifold. Placing this thermal gasket between the throttle body and the intake manifold reduces the amount of heat soak the intake manifold normally absorbs, to promote a cooler charge for additional horsepower.
