My gut feeling on this intake manifold says there will be definite HP gains. If the price is reasonble, I'll be one of the first to install. I'll do a before and after on the dyno. Anyone know when it will be available? I dread the thought of removing the intake manifold though.

It's 1.8 x degC + 32 = degF
So 18 +32 = 50

You might want to check yourself before mouthing off to another poster.
You are talking about a CHANGE in temperature not the temperature.
To illustrate:
0C is 32F
10 C is 50F
Therefore, an increase/decrease of 10C is only an increase of 18F.
So, when you are talking about lowering temps BY 10C, you are talking about lowering them by 18F

A couple of months wait for the carbon fiber intake manifold. They said March availability by email.
The Hondata gasket is going to go on the next time I have the intake off. It looks like they offer a race version.
Whats up with the Hondata race version?

This was an excellent link describing the Hondata gasket installation and benefits. http://www.s2000.org/mods/insulator/
After looking at all the different lines and connections to the intake manifold makes me want to simplify it even more with a Carbon replacement manifold one.

Quote from ENDYN emal "We're working on the prototype right now. The runner configuration and
preliminary plenum shape/volume will be ready for dyno development in
another month or so. Expect to see units available in March.
Price will be similar to that of the B series manifolds at $1450.00.

Tubo Magazine February 2004 has a nice full page picture on page 21. I wonder what the largest throttle body opening it will support?
