Aftermarket exhaust systems often put a lot of stress on turbo and manifold gaskets because they add extra weight and are much more rigid than the small diameter factory piping.

Hard use, especially on the track, can shorten turbo gasket life to hours!

This exhaust already had an ugly join where smaller diameter pipe had been used to lengthen it in the past, so I was able to cut that section out and replace it with a stainless steel flex joint. This should allow the rear half of the exhaust to move a bit without levering on the turbo.
