what gasket are you using between the test pipe and the b-pipe? i just put mine on and sounds like a big leak! its either the flare on my test pipe is to small or i need a gasket between the test pipe and b-pipe....

 

A leak is a common problem with Test-pipes, did you have yours made or buy one? The best exhaust sealant that I have used is Red silicone, Yes Red Silicone! A racer friend turned me onto it at it works wonders at sealing exhausts.

I used a "performance" paper 2.5" mr. gasket from the local auto zone.

 

i bought mine from testpipe.com it was an inch too long and the flare on it isnt that big....where do u get red silicon? is that the name brand?

 

You must run a gasket between the test pipe and B pipe. Don't buy the Mr. Gasket it won't last, try to find a hi temp graphite.

 

you know where i could find that?i really like the gasket that came with the GReddy system, is it like that?

 

im running a mustang 5.0 collector gasket from lopers

 

bringing back an old topic, for clarification.. i'm not using a testpipe, but I assume I need the same gasket(carsound to greddy evo b-pipe, 2.5")..

are hi temp graphite gaskets available at most muffler shops, or is this something i'm going to search for? also, since the Mr. Gasket has been vetoed, are there other suitable options?

thanks!

 

Ahhhhhhh! Zombie thread!!

 

i know, i know.. it won't die..

seriously though, just trying to do it right the first time, so i don't have to redo it.. heh..

 

I'm using the gasket that came with my Apex N1 @ testpipe -> bpipe.

 

A good muffler shop should have one. You want one of the graphite ones (Black shiny and slicks surface, or the stainless steel foil type.

 

I got mine with my testpipe
