$43 gasket for dp -> turbo?

I ordered a downpipe from RB yesterday for $90, and the woman asked me if i needed the gasket where it attaches to the turbo. Assuming it would be another 10 bucks or so at most, i told her to put it on. Then she knocks me flat with the total of $133!

Is there a reason that gasket is $43 bucks? And more importantly, is there any way I can do it cheaper? I didnt order it, and I'm gonna be miserable if the downpipe gets here and I have to wait for them to overnight that gasket because I cant find a suitable replacement locally..

Nope, unless you like changing gaskets frequently use the OEM. Try mazdaformance.com, talk to brian
