71616, Turbo mani to dp gasket
Posted by DSMRoadster, May-25-04 06:16 PM
Well the one that came with the hrc kit was gone to shit and I bought some Mr gasket paper ones that just went after I took out a GSX on the highway tonight. The paper one lasted about a month. Where do some of you guys get your new gaskets from? I don't feel like going to HRC and wait a couple of weeks. I need this like tomorrow or soon.

Your downpipe connects to your exaust manifold? :wary

I'm assuming the turbo to dp gasket, right? Any exhuast shop will have it and you should then hit with some copper spray. :)

I replaced mine with a gasket from a muscle car shop. It is a paper gasket with an inner metal ring. It has lasted about 11 months so far.

I'm using a gasket made for the catalyst converter from the dealer. It fits.

it's a standard 3 bolt layered exhaust gasket. NAPA autopart stores do carry them, and it should be in stock.

Mr gasket also makes a composited metal mesh inner gasket in the same bolt pattern. I forgot the part number though.
