Header exhaust gasket

B2FiNiTY · May 7th, 2009, 11:55 PM

I plan on installing my header back exhaust soon, hopefully this weekend pending this gasket deal.

I haven't seen anyone mention purchasing a new header gasket when installing their exhausts. Is this a required item? My yoshi trc did not come with new gaskets.

I re-used the stock ones.

Some don't use them at all I've heard, like Yosh.

Great! I didn't know stock was available to be reused. I shall do that then.

Thanks and can't wait to put this thing on.

I reused mine, no issues, except I had a leak at the header cause I didn't tighten the nuts up enough. Tightened them up correctly and all is good

Brand new ones were like 5 bucks for both at the local dealer.
