What exactly is a thermal kit
Quoted from their site:
CXJ PERFORMANCE is proud to present phenolic its 2pc thermal intake spacers. These spacers are made from 3/8 thick high grade phenolic. The spacers will isolate the throttle body from the manifold and also the manifold from the block.

With the isolated areas spaced off this way the manifold will run about 23 degrees cooler thus creating colder , denser , heavier air into the chamber

Dyno testing has shown an 10 horse power increase and 12 increase of torque.

Sold as a complete kit which includes

2 - Extended High Strength Manifold Studs

4 - Stainless Steel Manifold Bolts

8 - Stainless Steel Lock Washers

4 - Stainless Steel Allen Head Throttle Body Bolts

 Printed Detailed Installation Instructions with Photos

I'd like to see a dyno sheet to support those claims.

I'm not buying then 10 horses but theoretically if you raise the throttle body ita further away from the heat so it will defiantly run cooler..... I'm not sure about the 33% cooler though that seems like a wish not come true
