Can i use a 7cm gasket on a 14b ?

[Dsmj89]

Just as the title states. I am looking forward to replacing my gaskets on my turbo and was wondering if would be able to use a 7cm stainless steel gasket on the 14b/2g mani without any problems ? Or will i have to port ?
I also want to eliminate the seal ring as well, i re-used it cause i'm still running on stock gasket.

Okm12346 thanks, i know it'll work, i just don't want to have any exhaust leaks by just slapping it on there you know.

Before i start ordering gaskets can anyone else confirm i won't have a leak if i order a 7cm stainless steel gasket for the turbo ? Thanks, i need to know asap i need to order today.

I would recommend you get the OEM style multi layer gasket. The SS gaskets can warp and crack.

Liquid you are talking about the manifold to turbo gasket right ?

I'd imagine that is what he is referring to, and this is why: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-parts-feedback-reviews/304927-stainless-steel-7cm-turbo-manifold-gasket.html

Thanks for that link bud, very good piece of info to know.
I would have assumed it would've been better but I guess not, oem ftw.
