While bumping around my engine bay installing my turbo I must have knocked the water pipe pretty good with something. The car is a 2ga Talon. I have a coolant leak from where the water pipe and the thermostat housing connect (This is the only spot, I spent a hole day tracking it down and isolating it)

I have been trying to patch it with RTV silicone because I really didn't want to tear my turbo back out and reinstall it. Now after almost two days of RTV'ing and drying I feel I have no choice :toobad:

I have been on JNZ Tuning's OEM parts website and could only find an O-ring between the T-stat housing and water pipe for the non-turbo models .

Does anyone have the part number/link/size of the gasket/O-ring that goes between the water pipe and thermostat housing??
 
(extremepsi.com) and (thedsmgraveyard.com) sells oem gaskets, seals, and o-rings. I personally have gotten oem gaskets and o-rings from extremepsi, great place to shop online. Where it says (select a vehicle - 2G dsm of course) then (select category - oem parts) then (gaskets and seals)
 
If your sure it's the ring, and want it fast and the set up for that location is stock. I'd just hit up the dealership.
