Where do you get you're info from My Swiss never bought any plates SFR!
Every vender in the past was offering parts. Yes i used copper gasket, but did not come with tial WG.
Check you're prices before buying.

I have met and spoke with Gregg Jones (ownes Tial) and ALL his products also have a serial number. No serial number, no Tial product.
Gregg, his wife and other reputable aftermarket manufacturers have been fighting hard to close down all those fake importers making money from reputable names.

If it is such an issue to you why not contact him personaly, his email is on his website www.tialsport.com He takes great pride in producing QUALITY products, I'm sure if there is an issue that needs to be resolved he will try his best to fix it if he KNOWS about it.
Now that that is out of the way...Which gaskets are you talking about and what is the problem? F-ing **** gaskets tells me nothing.
Helpful comments that can help to find a solution to the problem are like this:
Are the burning out in a particular spot, what surfaces are they sealing, does it look like it is from a design flaw (what design flaw), do you think it is the gasket material that is "F-ing ****," why? Is it reinforced by steel mesh, bent and damaged in shipping, could it be a gasket from the flange supplier, if so what are they made of.
If you found a better way to seal what you are trying to seal how did you do it? What material worked best or have you found one?
Now, I will be away on a business trip for a few days so if I don't respond please forgive me.

I had the same problem with the same gaskets that are pictured. I will be switching to copper gaskets. I don't know if these where Tial supplied gaskets as I didn't purchase directly from Tial.

My paper gasket also blew out, but only the one on the hot side of the wastegate. My friend runs a tial on his 600HP integra, paper gaskets and no issues after nearly 2 years. Maybe it just has something to do with our cars?
