Default IMT = what exactly? RESOLVED

Hi folks.

I've been a good forum user, and I searched and searched and read ... and I can't find: A) what IMT STANDS for ... or B) a pointer to the actual parts - I'm guessing this is the Intake Manifold -> Throttle body gasket ... but apparently there are two(?)

Any pointers - even to something I've missed in stickies - would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

It stand for Intake Manifold Tuning. Here is a simple explanation of what they are and what they do. We have the vacuum design on the X-Type. The O-rings wear out over time and are one of the primary causes of vacuum leaks on our cars.

Here is a video showing how to replace the O-rings and will show you their location.
