Help me find exhaust gasket im looking for.

I need to find a 3" exhaust gasket that mates up to the turbo portion and will fit the flange of a 3" Ultimate racing downpipe. The flange bolt spacing seems really wide compared to most on the top of the downpipe where it mates with the turbo. My other one is busted up and now leaking. I also have an exhaust leak where the downpipe mates to the 3" Ultimate test pipe as well, but i think thats just a regular 3" gasket on that one. Can anyone point my in the right direction? Specifically for the one where the turbo mates with the 3"Ultimate DP. Thanks

You mean the donut gasket? All I can think of is the Mitsu stealership.

I would just buy a sheet of gasket material and cut one out. I've never done it myself, but it seems that people on here are always suggesting it.

no just regular gaskets, the new flange is flat, not recessed around it.

someone has to know, since a few downpipe makers make downpipes that do not use the stock donut gasket.

hmm thats an idea. I went to a muffler shop last time, thats where i got them before, they were a universal 3" square gasket that i rigged to get it to work. I just want the "right" type of gasket this time..
