    In response to the demand to extend our Phenolic Spacer lineup to include some of the older subaru models, we now have created intake manifold thermal spacers for Impreza 93-01 1.8L/2.2L, Impreza 99+ 2.5 N/A 'Phase 2', Legacy 97-99 'Phase 1', Legacy 00-04 'Phase 2'.

    Thermal spacers lift the intake manifold off the super heated engine to lessen the transfer of heat. Both the intake manifold and engine block are aluminum so the high heat transfers very quickly....well these spacers stop that. The cooler the intake charge the more HP and TQ your engine will make.

    In addition to cooling your intake charge, these will also give you a larger intake plenum similar to that of a throttle body spacer.

    These all come in our Triple Thick 8mm thickness for maximum heat protection.

    Why not go that extra step to get yourself past the competition?

    Applications:
    All 93-99 1.8L/2.2L Impreza engines
    All 99+ 2.5 N/A 'Phase 2' Impreza engines
    All 98 2.5 N/A 'Phase 1' Impreza engines
    All 97-99 Legacy Phase 1 2.5
    All 00-04 Legacy Phase 2 2.5


    Price: 79.99

    Like our other thermal spacers we suggest putting oem subaru gaskets on top and bottom of each spacer to allow proper sealing. You can buy these on our online store as well for much cheaper than the dealership.

    In the next few weeks we will also be releasing the 3rd design which is for the 98 2.5 N/A 'Phase 1' engines.

    93-99 1.8L and 2.2L

    i cant imagine they would be any different, they look exactly the same. Just thinking you might have some more market over on legacycentral.org

    '93-6/'98 1.8 & 2.2 imprezas and '89-7/'98 2.2 legacies share the same intake mani gasket part number: 14035AA290

    so yea, it'll work



    that said, I'm more than interested.

    justin, just an FYI, i dont know if i just got the wrong stuff or something, but the gaskets i got when i picked up the wrx ones weren't even close to correct, just a heads up, i dont know if we just grabbed from the wrong tote or something tho.

    Justin, you should change the title on the phase I 1.8 and 2.2 ones from "Impreza 93-99 1.8L/2.2L" to "89-99 EJ18/22", or something to that effect, since they will work on legacy 2.2s aswell.
