This gasket is ideal for those who want to maximize their engine's cooling capacity without sacrificing OEM fitment and quality.

Key Features

The HKS Super Cooling Pro gasket incorporates several innovative design elements aimed at enhancing engine cooling and performance:

• Enlarged cooling water passages in the front head improve overall head cooling, helping to maintain optimal operating temperatures during high-performance driving.
• A dedicated cooling water passage has been added between the cylinders, promoting more uniform coolant distribution and reducing hot spots that can lead to knocking or pre-ignition.
• Machine grooves in the head are precisely machined as necessary to ensure a perfect seal and proper gasket seating, preventing leaks and maintaining consistent compression.
• The gasket's grommet design ensures a secure fit, reducing the risk of blowouts or gasket failure under high boost or extended use.
• Constructed from high-quality materials that withstand elevated temperatures and pressures, ensuring long-lasting durability in demanding conditions.
• Optimized coolant flow paths help minimize knock limit variations, supporting higher boost levels and increased engine power.
• Designed specifically for the G16E-GTS engine, ensuring precise fitment and compatibility with OEM components.
• Helps improve engine reliability by maintaining stable operating temperatures, reducing thermal stress on engine components.
