Im gathering parts for my turbo upgrade. Going from IHI to Garrett so I had to purchase a 5 bolt exhaust elbow. I can't seem to find a gasket. What is usually done here? |

No gasket is used in stock form. It's a machined surface on both sides. If your surfaces are in bad shape, orange RTV can be used. There are some steel gaskets for this surface available but they aren't going to seal if the surfaces are in bad shape.

The turbo is new so that surface is good. The elbow is a used piece that I picked up off turboford site. Surface doesn't look horrible but I guess for good measure I'll put some orange on it.
Thanks for help.
