Ok, so I ordered a Hondata intake manifold gasket and it came today. My question is, how do I know it's real? I ordered it off of ebay because it was a good deal. The thing is blue and is stamped Hondata. It also came in shrink wrapped on cardboard/ firm oaktag with the hondata label all over the backing.

 

I have a buddy with one kicking around I can get cheap, let me know if it's worth it!

 

I think you can accomplish the same thing by re-routing some of the cooling lines. There is a thread about this on the S2KCA site.
