Turbo outlet pipe gasket

[4gfun]

Hey guys, what is the stocker made of and is it reusable? I have gotten cheap aftermarket ones that are paper gasket and tear. I wouldn't mind paying a bit more for a better quality one since I always find myself down there.

Is a better one available? What is the OEM one made of?

Thanks!

I myself have only ever used the stock paper fiber ones, I used gasket sealer on both sides and this helped holding it together when I removed it. Either way you should replace your gaskets every time you take anything apart anyways.

My oem one on my early Evo was a thin layer of steel. I've reused it multiple times it only starting leaking recently as the gasket is actually rusting. Threw some copper rtv, no leaks whatsoever!

If your talking about the o2 housing to exhaust i would replace that if it looks bad, if not, reuse it and test it.
