Dont know who sell them? eBay? But im sure the smaller ones (10mm??) mess everything up for the fuel rail to the injectors and what-not! But the 14mm you just sit it on the other side.

Got mine from MSD. Fitted cheap gaskets but they shit themselves when the boost was turned up to 30+ psi. Pair of Cometic gaskets fitted = problem solved.

if you do order from them Matt - dont select the inlet gasket set as that works out a couple of quid more expensive than adding the items seperately
