I need a gasket for the elbow

Where can I get the gasket for the compression elbow? I've been getting a boost leak and no matter how much gasket maker I throw on there it still leaks so I'm looking to see where I can get the real thing. Anyone know how much it goes for also?

On a side note, anyone have any idea why so many FDs are only missing that gasket?? 3 out of 4 FDs I see have silicone sticking out of that spot haha.

You can get them through MAZDA but IIRC there about $15 each.
I think McMaster-Car sells them in packs of 6 or 8 for less than half that. Just get the demensions from your old one. ---> http://www.mcmaster.com/#o-rings/=255761
Edit: I just noticed you indicated yours is gone. Maybe someone has the demensions or you can get it from your T-body.

If you are referring to the elbow --> throttle body connection, I assume you mean "o-ring" as there is no "gasket" for that connection.

Get the proper Mazda o-ring. You shouldn't have to use any silicone there except a few tiny dabs to hold the o-ring in place.
