J-pipe to turbo gasket
I searched but couldm't find anything. For some reason the gasket tore apart with only 17k miles on the car. Im looking for a crush type gasket, dont want the stock metal one. Anyone know a place that has it?
Thanks

my original oem one has been taken off and put back on at least 10 times, its been dropped and stepped on and its still in good shape. The oem ones are good quality, im surprised urs came apart like that. I don't think there's any other type of gasket available so u should just replace it w/ oem

You do realize that says OEM gasket, which means original Mitsubishi gasket. Just get the OEM one and be done with it.

I do realize it says oem but its looks different then stock. Looks like it has a crush style.

Ya def looks like oem. Get another oem one and slap it on. Remember though, it only goes on one way. You cant just take it and put it on it has to match the compressor outlet and the holes.
