Invidia N1 Catback Install w/ OEM Donut Gasket
 

Is the pipe of the N1 catback, that connects to the OEM midpipe, supposed to go over the donut gasket completely? When I was doing the install yesterday, it seemed like the opening on the N1 was too small and when I tried mate it to the OEM midpipe w/ the OEM donut gasket there was a noticeable gap (even after I tightened all the bolts).

That's how it goes

Pictures ...??

If the exhaust doesn't leak out, I wouldn't worry about it ....:)

Not my pic, but it's pretty close to what I was seeing:

That looks right, if theres no leak it should be good to go :thumbup:

Step 1: bolt her down. Step 2: put ear plugs in.

Yep, no worries. That's what it's supposed to look like. Have fun going deaf lol

Ditto, mine looks almost exactly like that, but a little wider on the gap, you can actually see the angled portion of the gasket. 3 mechanics all looked at it before I took it off the lift and they all said that is how it should look. I believe that picture you posted is from a WRX?

Awesome, thanks guys.

Not 100% sure. Highly likely that it is since I pulled the pic from nasioc.com :)

I don't have the invidia but my GReddy Revolutions rs had the same problem but came with a gasket so i just popped off the donut gasket and used the supplied one. no leaks for me
