downpipe problems???
 
What happens if the dp is not sealed totally with the turbos? I was just wondering what sort of problems I would notice because I think this might be a problem. Thanks,

well, when I didnt tighten mine enough, it sounds like a fat mans wet ass crack, squeezing a fart out having his butt cheecks slap together over and over again, with no type of pants or underwear to act as a muffleing system. you will know if its not tight enough, it will sound HORRIBLE. if you do have it tightend as much as possible, your gasket could possibly be blown 15-20 dollars I think. correct me if im wrong.

The gasket is $45 !!Brian at m2 told me that if you have an exhust leak, the hot exhust escaping can act like a blow torch, cutting away the exhust manifold.....
