Default wastegate gaskets?

My tial 35mm gasket broke after almost two years of turbo-goodness. My question is, is this required? does anyone not run this gasket?

if so, where can i get one? Tial Direct?

Ultra copper RTV is your friend.

Or replace the stock tial junk with a metal lined "fire-ring" gasket.
(Arturbo got us the one for gsrgrrls car.)
