P2R Throttle Body Spacer and Thermal Gaskets by Excelerate!!! - New Mod for the RL

Hey guys we just found out yesterday that this mod will fit the 05+ RL.

This is a Special Acurazine Pricing Event for the P2R Thermal Gaskets and Throttle Body Spacer for the 04+ Acura TL (including the Type S) and 05+ RL. This is a direct-fit, bolton modification with great gains for the price. We will be posting up more products for different applications and updating this thread. If you are interested in any other P2R product PM me.

04+ Acura TL, TL-S, 05+ RL Throttle Body Spacer with Throttle Body (TB) Thermal Gaskets

- Increase horsepower and torque with this 3/4 inch throttle body spacer.
- Tests on a 06 TL M/T[shown below] produced a 5.5 horsepower and almost 9 ft/lbs of tq gain at the wheels!
- P2R's spacer comes equipped with a 1/8th inch NPT threaded port at the bottom that can be used as an extra vacuum port or nitrous.
- Includes extended bolts, plug, and is polished to a brilliant show-quality shine.





P2R Thermal Intake Gaskets

Power Rev Racing intake gaskets will help reduce intake air temperatures by removing the direct connection of the intake manifold to the cylinder head. Made out of our proprietary heat dissipating material the P2R thermal intake gasket creates a thermal barrier that isolates power-robbing heat from traveling to your intake manifold through the cylinder head. Less heat soak means cooler air and more consistent power delivery.

Nice, Excelerate. Thanks for the post. it's good to have another engine mod for the exceptionally power hungry.

Anyone installing this.....please do pre and post mod dynos so we get an idea of whether this helps us RL folks.

Anyone who purchases this product and who is in the Miami area will get a free dyno from P2R pre and post install.

Let's see, if I start driving now from Chicago at an average of 80MPH...

Arrgg....never mind. Knowing my luck I'll get stopped in Georga and end up in jail.

How does this mod increase torque and horsepower? You state that it is a thermal heat isolation device. Is that all it takes to increase power? Are there other aspects also involved? Changes the developed intake length? Air flow harmonics? Smooths air flow? What? What? What?

Inquiring minds want to know!

what it does is keep heat out of the motor parts to reduce loss of power. Colder air is more dense, it uses more fuel to burn, thus creating more power. If the air is hotter, less fuel is used and less power is made. This in essense, will stop power loss in stop and go city traffic and during race events in which the motor will get pretty hot.

Same idea as an inter-cooler on a turbo. There ends up being more air in the cylinder because the denser cooler air expands when heated in the engine, thus more compression and more power.

One 1/2" block of aluminum and some fiber gaskets does not equate to an intercooler.... I'm extremely skeptical.

Would love to see some real dyno results.

Power Rev Racing intake gaskets will help reduce intake air temperatures by removing the direct connection of the intake manifold to the cylinder head. Made out of our proprietary heat dissipating material the P2R thermal intake gasket creates a thermal barrier that isolates power-robbing heat from traveling to your intake manifold through the cylinder head. Less heat soak means cooler air and more consistent power delivery.

The spacer plays more with airflow rather than heat. The reason it makes more power is because its after the throttle body, so it actually makes the plenum bigger, allowing the intake manifold to store more air. For example, you will not see a hp gain by making an intake arm one inch longer, but will see more power by making runners on an intake manifold longer.

Had this on my TL but had it in conjunction with an intake manifold thermal gasket. Kept the throttle body and intake manifold pretty darn cool. I didnt feel any of the power but the dyno said otherwise.

What were the supposed dyno gains?
