Info can be seen in profile.
As stated, I'll be replacing my CT-26 turbo shortly and need the correct gaskets or flanges (not sure what they're called). I've checked Autozone, and NAPA and they don't have anything listed but the exhaust manifold gasket on the block side. I need the correct part for the exhaust side of the manifold that connects to the turbo, and also the gasket for the downpipe. Does anyone have any info on these? Thanks. --------------------  |

See I'm exactly opposite. I hate using the dealer. If theres a different way to get a part, its normally better quality and for less price. I'd like to stay away from ebay since its pretty specific. Wouldn't really want to guess at some of the items on there and hope for the best. Guess I'm just picky... I did ask for any info though, so thanks for input.

NO EXHAUST GASKET CAN EVEN COME CLOSE TO THE DEALER GASKETS. seriously... I've bought two different after market gasket sets for my ct-26.. they are paper thin... the toyota gaskets are thick and strong... Two toyota technicians that helped with my swap said NEVER put anything but toyota gaskets on your car when it comes to exhaust.. and they are both big cheap skates so that tells you something!

Well looks like I'm headed to the dealer.
Obviously I'm not worried about the cost of a gasket, but man do I hate working with those guys. Thanks for input. -------------------- |
