Installing used Speedfactory exhuast.. gasket required?
 
I just got my hands on a used Speefactory V1 cat back exhaust and was hoping to install this weekend. I'm out of town so won't have access to any parts, was just wondering if a gasket is required for install or if I can reuse the OEM one?

I was thinking I'd have to swing by a dealer and pick up a donut gasket for the exhaust but have also seen people just drop the V1 right in. any help would be appreciated.

I suggest getting a new one just to make sure there are no leaks. better to be sure than have to go back and re install it.

The donut gasket can be reused, assuming yours is not damaged.

My exhaust has seen some winters but other than that shouldn't have any damage and is completely factory. I have to run out of town and am tight on time to go and source a gasket so was hoping to get away with it.

there pretty cheap probably like 15-20 bucks at any local dealership if you can find one. just make sure its the right size

just replace it. or expect to install twice if you find leak. do it at right first time. dont be cheap on gasket lol

Just wanted to update for anybody looking for this advice in the future, I picked up a gasket (twenty bucks or something) at a dealer but installed it using my OEM one as it appeared to be in good condition. No leaks from the start but glad I had a gasket on hand just in case.

Speedfactory V1 sounds incredible.

Youre selling your stock muffler and including the gasket?

Called a Donut Gasket, fits between the cat and the midpipe, can pick it up from a subaru dealer. Probably like 20-30 bucks.

Part number 44022AA123 I believe. They're available online as well.
