I have one copper and 3 that are graphite style. All are new
They go between the passenger side header collector and the turbo hot inlet (turbine). PM me for more info. -Mark |

Unless the flange is warped, it shouldn't need a gasket. It did not come with one from the factory.
Many of the vendors on this site sell them, both copper and graphite style. I always heard that once you've used one, the flange gets distorted enough that it always requires the gasket in the future. I didn't have one on my car when I bought it, and when I replaced my turbo, I didn't use one. It doesn't leak. Hope this helps Billy Montgomery Village, MD |

thanks for the information. I guess if both surfaces were cast I wouldn't need it but it seems like there is a slight warp and there was a gasket previously the burnt out. At least I have some options - thanks again for the two responses...
