Invidia front pipe issue
 
Well I put on the invidia catted front yesterday...pipe is fine, but the gasket they supplied to put on the overpipe just doesnt fit right.

The inner diameter hole is fine, but they do not line up right with the studs so its making a small leak. Did anybody else have a weird gasket? What did you do about it?

SAME thing happened to me! i just cut out the outer portion of the gasket bolt holes. worked fine for me.

my situation was front pipe to mid pipe i eventually had the two welded together though. my perrin overpipe came with subaru factory gaskets and the fitted perfectly

yeah i have the same problem too lol. my invidia front pipe to mid pipe gasket doesnt line up with the bolts.. so i think im guna do what FRS Fiend did and just bore out the gasket bolts holes. im installing a header back exhaust as we speak, wish me luck!
