So I have a tanbe tbe and it came in 4 peaces with 4 gaskets. All of the gaskets fit perfect except the one from the exhaust manifold to the down pipe. The gasket is to small. Do I need this gasket? the stock one didnt have it but I dont know what to do. thanks for any help. I have a 06 evo MR

 

You may need to just reuse the stock donut

 

Yea reuse the stock donut or buy a new stock donut. Apply some red atv on it while you're at it.

 

You mean cut off it and re weld? I didnt see a donut on the stock exhaust. Also I took pictures of all the parts and if you could please help that would be great. Also I dont know what side the gasket faces? the test pipe to the mid pipe are both flat and the mid pipe to the canister are both round. SEE PICTURES. This shouldnt be this hard I have done exhausts before and never me before thanks guys. so the down pipe gasket doesnt fit took a pic of that and the test pipe and mid pipe where they connect both are flat and the can and the midpipe on the other side are round. I know I dont have it backwards because the o2 sensor wont reach if I do flip it

 

 

That first picture looks like the downpipe. Most likely the donut gasket is still on the 02 housing. It may seem like its part of the 02 housing but it's just really on there. Use the gasket flanges for everything else.

 

need help good night bump

 

 

Yup that is what you need...!

 

I had a Tanabe Concept G Blue and just reused the stock donut.

 

so the mid pipe and the canister the pipes are both round and why do they send 4 of those gaskets?

 

First of all who did you buy this from? If you bought it from some company have you asked them about the gaskets? In most cases they send you one extra in case one gets damaged or lost.

When I bought a Turbo XS TBE they sent me 4 gaskets as well however no donut gasket, I ended up using the stock one. 3yrs later I'm still using the same Exh and not problems here!



Just reuse the donut gasket and install exh. and save the extra gasket incase you want to put a test pipe on or what not!
