Default Turbo Exhaust Gasket Question

Hey Turbo guys. I have a leak at the "J" pipe between the wastegate and the crossover pipe. There is a doughnut between the wastegate and the "J" pipe, but I can't find a source for the doughnut between the "J" pipe, and the crossover pipe. Does it even have one, or is there a different type of gasket there?

Thanks!

Is your leak resulting in a loss of boost?

Dunno-

It's got that "THBBBTHHHHHtttt" sound when you open the car up. I just put on a Bursch Cat-Bypass opipe, and figured out this was where a leak was coming from. I am going to remove and check the whole "J" pipe to make sure it isn't cracked-I'm just having a hard time finding the gaskets.

Try Vertex or Paragon. Even if they are not listed on thesite, Paragon can get oem parts.
