Just been reading the thread in Badger5 section. Seems a very worthwhile mod indeed! We all strive for cooler IAT's
Yet more money to spend on the money pit that is the car..
I have one sitting in my room ready to fit, arrived on Monday
Just not got round to posting pictures yet, will do tonight

Nice one, I was wanting some pictures of it before I go and order one
I've not seen it all fitted either, so if you want to take pictures of the fitting feel free mate.
Here are some pictures of the Phenolic Intake Manifold Gasket I bought from Badger5 to be put on when the polished manifold goes on. Comes with longer bolts too.
Its a lot thicker than I expected!

Car is being recovered to the garage today and they are starting work on saturday to be finished by Monday. Cant wait to get it back! Sick of using the train 
That gasket is thick indeed mate didn't think it was that much either judging by the pics!
Good news on the car. I'm sure you'll fall in love with it again, absence makes the heart grow fonder! And trains make you miss them even more!!
F'ing hate my train service at the mo. 2 delays this morning mid-journey, to give way to trains that we're late from miles away going into London.... Plus a screaming baby on my carriage right near me, all this today with a hangover was extremely hard to take. Although admittedly I wouldn't have driven to work if it was an option today going by the alcohol consumption last night!

Probably adds about 1cm to the mani mate, maybe a shade more.
Ill fall in love with it until I need to fill it up with petrol again haha

What material is it made from? Does it do the same as a New South Power gasket for the Mk4 Ibiza 20vt lump ie. lower intake temps?
Pretty smooth finish and quite heavy too. Its really small, but i think it has s.s printed on it. Will try find a magnet
Phenolic is the material isn't it?
Yep, thats what its for. To stop the mani getting so hot from the block
