Built to handle the varying expansion rates of different manifold and housing materials, this gasket is constructed to resist burn-through and will not push out under boost. It maintains a consistent torque set over time, providing a superior seal compared to standard composite alternatives. Whether you are performing a fresh turbo install or servicing your exhaust manifold, this specialized gasket ensures maximum exhaust gas velocity is directed into the turbine housing.
