it does matter. we're in the process of developing tb spacers right now. they should be available within the next month or so. we're really concentrating on getting ready for NOPI. so the focus is on getting everything worked out to bring the intake manifold gaskets to the show. as soon as we're done with NOPI we'll be introing the tb spacers.

The updated site looks good.
How much are you going to be charging for a kit that includes both the mani gasket and the TB gasket?

I might be interested in a kit if it includes both gaskets.

It would be for a BP DOHC (Mazda Protege).

Thanks

the gaskets alone have produced approximately 5% HP increase for the two cars we've dyno'd [a civic and a vw passat turbo]. the torque increases were 5% for the civic and 9% for the passat. i don't think there's any reason to believe that there would be any thing less that 5% increase for the proteges. if you're running 125hp probably around 6 hp increase. we haven't tested a protege yet. my clutch is bad or else i would have already run mine to find out exactly what kind of numbers i'm making.

the spacers should produce similar results but we haven't dyno tested them yet.
