If you own an Audi S4, you know that "service position" is practically a hobby. Whether you’re chasing performance or just keeping the daily driver alive, once that supercharger comes off, you only want to do the job once.
Installing a set of Uberbricks? PCV bust again? Time for a thermostat? Or maybe you’re just wondering what’s actually under that supercharger?
Whatever the reason you're diving into the "valley of death," don't risk a vacuum leak by reusing flattened, crusty old seals. Our Intake Manifold Gasket Set is the essential "while you're in there" insurance policy for your 3.0T engine.

Intake Manifold Gasket Set FAQ
Do I need to replace these every time I remove the supercharger?
Yes. These gaskets compress and harden with heat cycles, so reusing them after removal risks a vacuum leak. Replace them anytime the intake manifold comes off.
Does this kit include every gasket needed for a full manifold reseal?
Yes, this set includes everything needed to reseal the intake runners after a teardown on the 3.0T supercharged V6.
I'm installing Überbricks or a new thermostat housing. Do I need this too?
If the intake manifold has to come off to access those components, yes. It's cheap insurance against comeback vacuum leaks and an extra teardown down the road.
Will this cause a check engine light if I skip it?
A failed intake manifold gasket typically shows up as a vacuum leak, which can trigger lean-condition codes or rough idle. Replacing the gaskets while you're already in there prevents that.
What tools do I need to install this?
Standard hand tools are sufficient. No special tools are required beyond what's needed to remove the intake manifold itself.
