Default Skunk 2 Throttle body

Ok right now i have a skunk 2 70mm throttle body. I need to take it off to replace the MAP sensor but where can i get the throttle body gasket? do i have to make my own from gasket material? is it a special kind of gasket material? or can you use the stuff from home depo? Thanks.

Try Acura for the Integra type R throttle body. My skunk2 Integra type R thottle body matches my s2000 other than the throttle rotor being reverse.

Contact Skunk 2, they should be able to sell you a replacement. I have a 70mm and mine came with a gasket. Did you buy yours used?

on factory s2k, the throttle bodies are different. For some reason my friend has a custom throttle body spacer for his ap1 2001 and he try to sell it to me but it would not fit on my car, ap2 2006. he has a stock intake man.
