I don't see any gasket at all. Got the exhaust, 2 stickers, 2 bushings and the function form! I'll contact them tomorrow.

What size did you get again? You may not need a gasket.

ONLY THE 3" EXHAUST COMES WITH A GASKET. IF YOU GOT A 2.5" EXHAUST YOU REUSE YOUR STOCK GASKET


Just wanted to make sure everyone complaining about not having a gasket was aware of this.

Suxxx guess Nameless had a little bit of a blunder with adding a new size exhaust into their lineup. They should mark them with tape or something, the people packaging them prolly aren't noticing that they're 3" not 2.5" so they aren't putting the gasket in there.

On a more positive note after I talked to them the gasket was sent out the next morning via USPS Priority mail 1-3 day shipping so your wait won't be too bad. Unless you had your install planned on your days off like me but hey, I don't mind losing some sleep to get this done lol

Packing is absolutely awesome. No complain at all. If I don't install it tomorrow, I have to do that next Fri and I don't like that. LOL.

Btw, How about I just install them w/o gasket? exhaust leak, I know that will happen but it's still ok????

Oh yeah I agree, the packing was stellar! I'm just saying that they're probably aren't told which ones are 3" and require the gaskets so they don't get put in the boxes lol

Yeah if you install it without the gasket it will leak bad, you could do that but it will sound like poo and you'll end up having to get under the car twice instead of waiting and just getting under it once lol

Yeah any auto parts or exhaust shop might carry them if it's not to specialized. I debated on going to my local exhaust shop but thats just more money that i don't have to spend if I learn some patience and wait a few days lol patience is a virtue I need to start learning.

Just realized I got the 2.5" instead of the 3". Originally ordered the 2.5" but my order was delayed because they were making the switch to the 3" and I was supposed to get the new revision since that's all they were going to offer.

Saw all the talk about the gaskets and realized mine didn't come with one and I have no leaks so I must have the 2.5.

Don't know if I should complain or not. I did get what I originally ordered. :/

I complained because I ordered 3" and received 2.5". If you DID order 2.5", then you'll have to pay the restock/return fee if you want a 3".

Even through all the crap I went through, Titan cost me extra money out of my pocket even with the refund.

I just called them few minutes ago. After letting him know that I didn't get the gasket with my 3" exhaust, he told me that they already shipped them out and asked me to wait for few more days.

I didn't even let them know my order # or anything like first name, last name, etc. I think after few calls complaining about the missing gasket, they went back through all orders and decided to ship the gasket to everyone that order the 3" version.

Good to hear so far. BTW, I decide to wait for the gasket, I can install them in the morning before I go to work. LOL

Quick question. What is the function form for???
