No it doesn't come with one. I went ahead and put a gasket on there, but from what I was told, it isn't needed.

There should have been a few pages of instructions included wih the exhaust that said the leaks would be non-existant or very minor. Since I like things to end up being perfect I sanded the mating surfaces flat with a few passes of emery cloth. Either way you should be fine with no gasket. Worse case is you hunt down a 3" exhaust gasket and remove a couple bolts to slip it in but the flanges look clean enough to just bolt them together.

if you want your exhaust system to have a gasket seal, like i did, go to your local auto parts store and purchase some gasket. you just have to cut what size you want
