    I need to do this because these k24 are a pain when the intake manifold is hot because of the coolant that connects to the manifold and on my k20 i never had this issue i need as much cold air as possible

    Yo bro after you cut off the coolant flow on the rbc. Do you just plug the top fitting with a vacuum cap? And reroute the coolant hose on the right side? And cap the other 2 openings?

      What fittings are you talking about? The vacuum lines? Yes plug them

    Bottoming tap should have been used. But hey, if cutting the bolt works without leaking that's badass!

      @GEORGE LOPEZ HOW TO DO IT YOUR SELF Nice! Good to know, I have the same one, but just haven't installed it yet. Almost pulled the trigger on the tractuff just in case. This makes me more confident.

    Could/should this be installed over the intake manifold gasket and not leak? Maybe it’ll still leak, if so I guess cut gasket and just Hondabond

    Hey i have a plm version to that ktuned one, but the hole for the coolant on the actual piece isnt quite circular. Are you familiar with that one?

      Coolant level is good? Maybe needs to bleed...no leaks?

      Hondabond is a ceramic-acrylate RTV mixture. It's definitely the best RTV on the market, do not subsitute crappy permatex for Hondabond. Save $5 and lose 10 years of reliability.
