New South Performance - 1.8t PowerGasket PLUS - Small Port

For all "small port" 1.8t models, including the AWD, AWW, AWP and most other popular Mk4 1.8t engines. Also for non-AEB Audi A4, TT and Passat models.

PowerGasket gives you up to 5% more power from your engine by reducing the temperature of the incoming air to your engine. NewSouth Performance has designed an insulating gasket that radically reduces the heat transfer from the cylinder head to the intake manifold. This gives you cooler, denser air for more horsepower and performance from your engine.

Made from a high performance polymer, PowerGasket conducts on average less than 1/500th of the heat of the steel gasket that it replaces. Your intake manifold will stay 30-50F cooler and your incoming air will stay 20-30F cooler.

PowerGasket Plus is a composite material that has a significantly higher continuous operating temperature than the original PowerGasket and does not require the application of any extra sealant.

PowerGasket has been designed for affordability, easy installation and no disruption to your manifold attachment and engine accessories. This means that you can simply swap your old intake manifold gasket for a PowerGasket. No buying longer bolts or installing multiple gaskets. In less than 2 hours, you will be enjoying a more powerful, better performing ride.
