blown gasket between exhaust mani and turbo?

When mine blew, it would not reach full boost. You will hear a loud tick. What makes you think yours is blown? What are your symptoms?
 
I was just woundering because when it happens I want to be able to go right to the problem and fix it.

The reason I think that it might happen soon is the fack that I didn't have a new gasket when I replaced my turbo and I just used the old one and copper sealed it on there.

thanks for your replies
 
My personal experience with the original Gasket is that it holds pretty well. I reused the gasket when it was in pretty thin condition but just added some high temp paste to it and it held up great. SO If I were you I'd be worrying about more important things.

Nice ride BTW :)
