Default OEM exhaust gasket & boost?

Anyone running the OEM exhaust gasket with boost (either high or low boost)?...or are people using Mr.Gasket copper gaskets instead?

...that's not what I meant ....I was just wondering if an OEM would be good at 22-25psi and 500+whp. I was running a copper one last year but I need to replace it and was wondering if stock would do.

ok, just checking... ...
I don't see why it wouldn't work with that much boost, it is metal. I don't have any factual knowledge for you though just oppinion.

a stock should work fine...... unless you use a specific gasket which drops compression, as long as its sealed up right it should work. Aslong as its torqued right a gasket is a gasket.......
