Vrsf jpipe

[THEKILLERWHALE]

I got the vrsf front mout with jpipe.

All installed and everything, on a 16g

I have a boost leak from the jpipe to 16g

So I'm going to pull the turbo and fix the connection.

What's the proper way to seal that?
From what I understand there is no gasket. So what should I do?

Thanks!

Theres suppost to be a gasket between the "J" pipe and turbo.

There should be a gasket there.

I was told there wasn't one for the vrsf jpipe cause the holes are different sizes and rtv is
Usually used. I just wanna make sure I got what I need before I pull it all out

You can just take the pipe off the turbo. Don't need to pull the turbo. Clean both gasket surfaces. You can use Gasket former (RTV Silicone). You might want to use different bolts and hone the gasket surface on the j-pipe mine wasn't really flat. I had to put it on a hard surface and beat the shit out of the flange with a brass hammer and the hone it with a honing stone. If you don't have a honing stone, you can use a rather hard surface and sand paper. Make sure to use lots of water so you don't have to change sandpaper as often.
