Those are not true 3" gasket, beware!

Greddy/Trust 80mm gasket is true 3 in.
Let me find the vendor I used for them.

The descriptions are "GReddy 80MM oval exhaust gasket." Are they really oval or are they circles?

The flanges on the Buschur downpipe to cat leak.

Everything you get from buschur either leaks or doesn't fit right, but if you fix those minor little things, he makes more power then anyone =p

That is the part number and by oval I think they mean 2 bolt flange so yes it is kind of oval. I am running the exact gasket from an RMR DP to a Buschur Cat.

lol Speaking of leaks, when I took off the downpipe to get an O2 bung welded on, I saw soot going outwards from the circle to the end of the flange. I'll probably get a gasket for that too.

The GReddy cat-back I had on my old car included their gasket, which had a circular inner diameter cutout. I guess the gasket itself was sort of oval-ish.

Thanks for the info.

First of all they are not easy to find. Some of them are advertized as 3" but they are really not.

I order once a truly 3" gasket from Greddy. Ironicly it was $11 also. You wouldn't find much cheaper than that neither much better either. Go with Greddy.

When I googled it I saw them for 6.80 right on the first page of results.
There is/was a vendor on here that sold them but I forget who it was.

I bought a sheet of exhaust gasket material at Autozone and made my own. Took about 10 minutes, and my Buschure TBE no longer leaks. I just used a 3 in. hole saw to cut it out. I am so happy with this exhaust now. It is quiet and makes good power. Good Luck
