Hey all,

Does anyone know this? I need it so re:worx can order it from Japan?

It\'s the gasket that sits between the metal crossover pipe and the y-pipe itself? Or if there\'s an alternative let me know.

Have tried emailing a few US places about getting one with no response.

Any help much appreciated

Cheers,

Paul.

I used hermtite on mine Paul, but it needs to be flat straight etc, which i did myself on a flat plate,check with a straight edge, same with front turbo Y pipe connection, i made that flat too, they tend to distort a few thou from overtigtening at some point,
No gaskets no problem, excellent mod, Bob

Cheers matey, where\'d I get hermtite from? Googling just comes up with jewellery?

Halfrauds may have some Paul or MDC, or demon should have something similar, most important thing is to make the mating surfaces flat, so that wherever you put a cigaret paper between the mating surfaces and push the joint together you cant pull the paper out, usually the middle of each side in between the bolts is where there may be a gap, on a flat surface with some emery glued to it drag the part towards you while pushing down on the part to get a nice flat even finnish on each surface, check with a straight edge, may sound crude but you will see any high spots immediately, works for me, and in this case it\'s only air!
