[Koren]

anione know ani places tt custom this? or ani other materials tt can be used as a substitue

[Vtim]

this company sells Phenolic Resin Laminate Sheet, not sure it can be used on our engine, just check with them about the Thermal Insulating property and whether it can be compressed.

wow

 

every 20k must do these,liao liao,can't do it myself,take to workshop to do -------$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[Vtim]

no, not every 20k km lah, maybe about 60k~80k km depending on whether did you high rev your engine or not

[Vtim]

may not have for Toyota wish but the wish 1.8L engine is 1ZZ-FE,

 

may be you can search under 99' onwards Toyota Celica SS1 (ZZT230) which also uses the same engine or Corolla 1.8L (Aug 00 to Apr 04), Corolla 1.8L RUNX (Sep 02 onwards), Corolla 1.8L Spacio (May 01 onwards), ISIS 1.8L (Sep 04 onwards), MR-S 1.8L (Oct 99 onwards), Premio 1.8L (Dec 01 onwards) & RAV4L/RAV4J 1.8L (May 00 to Nov 05)

 

of all the above, you may have better luck with the search on Celica SS1, Corolla 1.8L RUNX or MR-S

Just go to your regular workshop and tell him to dismantle the IM and clean for you

 

If you don't have one, PM me and I'll give you the contact and addy

[Kingcopa]

PM me.

Do not bother, it is not necessary. The 1ZZFE manifold is molded plastic design was to insulate heat from the engine block + isolate vibration resonance (ie. quieter engine operation).

 

Since by default it already has heat blocking properties from factory, no companies bother to make an intake gasket (ie Cometic)

 

Btw, the intake manifold gasket is actually just a rubber ring seal, not flat plate style.

 

Hope I've help

[Vtim]

done

[Upguy1]

i also want to clean my intake manifold... hitting 110k km soon

[Vtim]

after cleaning better install oil catch tank, DIY cheaper

I have already installed it inside the stock airbox, will post pics once result is out (after dyno)

 

the one that I used is TEC1-12706 (Single Stage TEC) and here are the specs : http://www.thermoelectricsupplier.com/single.php

Camping here for your updates ! Seems very interesting mod

the TEC wasn't place at an idea location, see pics.

 

I will find a way to locate it along the airflow, may have to remove stock airbox and put in a aftermarket one like the Simota
