Default people with t3 5 bolt flange/downpipe setups, running a gasket?

I was wondering if you guys with t3's or t3/t4's are running a gasket inbetween the turbine and the exhaust flange for the downpipe?

I've tried hi-temp liquid gasket, of course that burns away under boost, leak starts again. I tried something else, some other material its burning as well under boost.

You guys using copper gaskets or anything?

Trying to pass inspection, thanks.

no gasket here on the downpipe. maybe your flange is slightly warped. get it decked tob e sure it's flat.
