does anyone know what kind of gasket if there is any, that i can use to put between the turbo manifold and turbo? Is it possible for me to cut one out of a copper gasket sheet? recommendations are welcomed! links?

 

lots of places sell them

Try the force induction forum net time.

But I recommend not putting one at all. Works great.

After going through one after another, its not worth it. -=P Leave it bare.

 

I didn't use one. No leaks boosting @ 18psi.

 

I think the best thing to do would be to go to a local parts store, and get a turbo gasket set for any vehicle with the turbo you're running. I worked for Advance Auto, and I have done that before, gotten a turbo gasket set(turbo flange gaskets) for a T3 by looking up the set for a mid 80's ford 2.3 motor. Does that make sense? Hope I helped out. That is considering you aren't wanting a lot of down time waiting for shipping.

 

i wouldnt run any gasket. this is how ive run all my setups. as long as you have a good manifold you wont have any problems. gaskets tend to blow out from all the heat

 

No gasket here.

 

you could use copprer gasket sheet....i have ran it w/o one in the past with no problems, just make sure the flanges aren't warped.

Also, i have a metal gasket in there now, and it was a crush style gasket, meaning there is a lip that gets crushed the first time you tighten it.

 

try Rev Hard in Northridge, CA

 

cool..i guess imma try without one for now and see how it runs...but if i was to buy one..where did you get your crush gasket from?
