one of these new "power gaskets" or whatever they are called, for between the inlet manifold and head? If they work they seem like a cheap enough upgrade.

Also has anyone changed the turbo inlet pipefor a performance one.

I have a Revo'd but otherwise standard 1.8T and don't know what to do to make it more efficient without spending too much or going the big turbo route.

Cheers.
 
jury is out on those gaskets, your inlet mani doesn't get that hot with the huge amount of air it sees, arguement says that the head needs to lose some of the heat it is absorbing from the chamber somewhere and if you insulate it from the manifolds etc that it loses those options.

still cheap "suck it and see" part
