Has anyone seen a range of these for Toyota's?

So far i can only see a range for
2JZ-GTE
3S-GE
3S-GTE

I was looking for 4AGE

Yep I have seen something similar.

Its a teflon gasket . I had a thread going a litle while ago in regards to sealing my inlet manifold with the amount of boost i run and came across this.

Thanks for the link 30psi 4agte

I am looking for a 20V version, just can't seem to find anything

I want to give it a go, just for interest sake, see what it does if anything

[Sam_Q]

I would think the manifold spacer that a 20v has standard would make a pretty good insulator.

[psychofox]

as Sam says, the spacer that the 20V has stock is a phenolic spacer, it just has metal layers on the outside of it. Also the 20V's inlet track isn't that big, and from memory the throttles don't get very hot from during operation. I think the gains would be nil to minimal at best with a Normally aspirated 20V.

I made one a few years back for my 16V, and actually used it to replace the T-VIS plate (so it was about 1" thick). I never did any dyno testing before & after, but I know it resulted in my intake manifold being stone cold after a good thrashing, whereas beforehand it would be too hot to touch.
Now that my engine is turbocharged the manifold isn't as noticably cold, but I still imagine it would help. Plus the main reason for mine was just to get rid of the T-VIS.

Your a legend. I was trying to find one for a 3SFE and was typing in all sorts of keywords in Google with no luck. Ended up typing 3SFE intake and it came up. Thanks!
