Default What gaskets?

Anyone got links to good quality gaskets for the intake manifold. Will be picking up the freshly powdercoated inlet manifold during the week.

I ad seen them mentioned but at a cost of £110+ more I don't see the point. I'm happy with the power on the car, unless someone can point out an extreme benefit to convince me otherwise

Fair enough. Personally I'd call ICP to make sure they are the correct ones. Or AS performance, as they've usually got most bits in stock.
