Key Features

The BLOX Racing intake manifold gasket incorporates several innovative features to ensure optimal performance and durability:

• Manufactured from CNC-machined high-temperature resistant thermal polymer composite plastic, providing excellent heat resistance and stability under demanding conditions.
• Designed as a direct replacement for OEM gaskets, ensuring a perfect fit and seal without modifications.
• Reusable construction allows for multiple installations, saving time and cost over the lifespan of your engine rebuilds or upgrades.
• Thermal polymer material helps protect against heat soak, reducing incoming air temperature before it reaches the cylinders.
• Lower intake air temperatures contribute to improved combustion efficiency, supporting increased horsepower and torque.
• Engineered to withstand the high temperatures and pressures typical of turbocharged applications, making it ideal for performance builds.
• Precision CNC-machined for consistent thickness and sealing surface, ensuring a reliable seal every time.
• Compatible with OEM and aftermarket intake manifolds for Mitsubishi Evo 8/9 models.

Construction & Design

This intake manifold gasket is crafted from a CNC-machined thermal polymer composite plastic, a material chosen for its exceptional heat resistance and durability. The CNC machining process ensures precise dimensions and a smooth sealing surface, which is critical for maintaining an airtight seal under high boost and temperature conditions. Its one-piece design eliminates potential leak points and simplifies installation, making it a favorite among performance enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike.

The gasket's thermal properties help shield the intake manifold and cylinder head from excessive heat transfer, which can lead to intake air heat soak and power loss. By maintaining cooler intake temperatures, this gasket supports more consistent engine performance and helps prevent issues related to heat-related detonation or knocking. Its high-quality construction guarantees long-lasting performance, even in demanding turbocharged applications.

Installation & Fitment

The BLOX Racing Intake Manifold Gasket is designed as a straightforward bolt-on replacement for the factory gasket. No cutting, drilling, or additional modifications are required for installation. It fits directly between the intake manifold and cylinder head on Mitsubishi Evolution VIII and IX models equipped with the 4G63T engine from 2003 to 2005. Proper installation ensures a reliable seal and optimal engine performance. It is recommended to replace the gasket whenever removing or servicing the intake manifold to prevent leaks and maintain peak efficiency.

• Easy, bolt-on installation with standard hand tools
• No special tuning or adjustments necessary
• Designed for use with OEM and aftermarket intake manifolds
