I had the same problem too. Check them gaskets out:

I bought a couple from them because cannot find anybody else. Factory gaskets are only ~ couple bucks but since it's so hard to find 3" gaskets they're pricier.

Local exhaust shops probably have some too but I didn't get a chance to theck around.

Believe it or not what I find works best is using high temperature RTV Silicone. You will get zero leaks and if you ever need to remove the exhaust you just add more RTV.

Yes they are good quality. We have been running them on tons of cars and they seem to last longer then the normal gaskets that come with helix, invidia, hks, etc...

We have them instock and they ship out right away

I retract what I posted above. I just remembered that I researched and almost bought from them but ended up buying the gaskets from Gruppe-S. I got them for $10/each shipped. They were high quality. I used them on the front and back end of my cat. They don't have it listed at their website but email them. I went back and looked at my Paypal payment and it showed that I had paid $20 to them for two 3" exhaust gasket. I've bought other stuff from Gruppe-s and I've been happy each time.

I'm not sure about that one. I had someone installed my DP for me and it came with a gasket (I believe). I only can speak of the 3" gasket that I installed in the forward and aft end of my cat delete pipe. Give them an email and see if it's the same or perhaps they have one the O2 housing and DP if it's a different gasket.
