Default Need a material I can make gaskets out of!

Hey all, Im looking for some sort of high-temp material I could find at like Home Depot or some shop like that I could cutup/drill to make gaskets out of.

I havent taken a trip there and looked for any high heat thin material, but if anyone has anything they can suggest, let me know!

Thanks

Doh sorry probably should have said...
In paticular for oil feed/return on turbo parts, and the wastegate gasket and exhaust/intake gaskets on the turbo.

Dont run gaskets on your turbo. They are 2 machined surfaces and if it is snug it will not leak. the return line you will definatly want to run an gasket. but yeah you can get them at the parts store, like 3 bucks for a sheet of gasket material.

that's what i did. My gaskets on my wg/turbo etc.. all leaked so i took them out and never had a problem after it. As for the return lines, i went to pepboys and bought a sheet of this gasket material for a couple bucks and that worked pretty good
