Thermal intake gasket

Is it just the same as fitting a standard paper gasket?

Also anyone have the torque specs for the inlet?

Cheers

i use a tiny bit of hondabond to stick the thermal gaskets to one surface and then leave it set overnight - this stops the gasket moving about when fitting it in place ;)
i will have a look in the manual for the torque spec for the intake bolts
