Default mugen twinloop exhaust question concerning gaskets (that is if there are any)

just got a slightly used mugen twinloop catback to replace my 5zigen fireball and my question is this. does the mugen use gaskets or come with gaskets? because i didn't get any and the seller states that there were never any gaskets when he install and/or removed from his car.

just want to make sure. i have extra gaskets lying around and have them if they are needed but just wanted to make sure.



yes it's dirty...gonna bling bling polish it up before it goes on

You definitely need a gasket where the midpipe meets the muffler. Good luck finding one here, as none of the gasket companies are willing to help. I had mine shipped from a friend in Japan.

Umm i think a 2.5 inch s2k header gasket might work for the midpipe-axel back section.

True.

Or buy the 2.5" gasket they sell for JDM ITR 4-1 headers. Those are easy to find.

I had the exhaust years ago....

I'm going with what Mario stated up top....

S2k or JDM 4-1 donut It's not that expensive to make the whole thing complete....

I had one on my 5th gen prelude. It came with gaskets that I couldn't find in the states.
