Default downpipe leaking what to do

my downpipe is leaking. i took to apart one time before to fix it the first time and it was a bit*h. Two bolt broke and the other two was hard to take out. I put everything back together, hi-temp silicone gasket between dp and turbo, and tighten everything. After all that i still have a leak, less than before but still annoying. My question is can i put anything between the area of the downpipe and turbo without going through the hassle of taking everything apart?
