Stacking gaskets? I'm not car buff, but this sounds like bs to me. I'd like to know what this spaceage material is.

and why did you post this? we're not going to have threads about every auction found on eBay. unless you already have it or seriously are looking for suggestions, it doesn't belong in this forum.

Nismo of course i wanted suggestions on it before I bought it. I mean thats why I posted. I was just joking about the roswell alloy. The seller claims hp increase and better durability and so I was considering buying it. As usual, I thought I'd ask here first. pardon my sig...LOL!

Hmmm I guess the principal is the same as the MREV product for the (G35) throttle body. Reduces temperatures by preventing heat transfer. I'm going to go ahead and raise the BS flag on it till there is more info available from a reliable source.
