Thermo Intake Manifold & TB Gaskets
Below is the text from an email i sent to www.outlawengineering.com on the thermo intake manifold gasket (reduces heat soak on the intake allowing the air charge entering the engine to be cooler, thus denser)
They need a minimum of 20 commitments and a test car (they are in Indianapolis, IN) to do the fitment on.

We do not currently offer an application for the TSX. We generally request 20 firm commitments prior to the design, prototyping, and production of a new performance part. Pricing for a set, including intake manifold and throttle body insulators along with necessary hardware such as lengthened studs would be in the $100 range.
To prototype a new set, we generally prefer to have acces to a full vehicle. This will allow us to investigate fit-up issues and to do a before and after dyno test to asses performance increase. We are lated in Indianapolis, so if there are any interested parties in the central Indiana area that would be interested in having their vehicle used as a test bed, please step up. This would include a short session to evaluate the vehicle and take measurement data, followed by another session a short time later to install and evaluate the prototype set. This, of course, would be done free of charge.
Please gauge the interest for your group and let us know.
Best regards,

I would be interested if the kit also comes with injector base gasket, which mates with the cylinder head. By insulating this section, the fuel rail will be much cooler and the heat transfer to the intake manifold will be even less.
It's item #8 in the picture.
Item #2 is the intake manifold gasket. As you can see, they are both very important.
Item #1 TB gasket. Also important due to coolant lines running through the TB.
