Greddy SP Elite exhaust leak

Hey guys, just got my new greddy sp elite. Tried installing it this morning but having a small leak on the left side. I've already tried moving the gasket as much as I can and everything. Any ideas on how to align it properly? If i spray copper sealants on it, will it fix the problem? Leak is only on one side.

I got the same thing. The gasket and bolts (due due the split lock washers) included suck. Using the stock bolts helped, but it still leaks ever so slightly when cold (goes away when warmed up). I will switch to the stock gasket, or perhaps 2 of them, since they can take up more surface imperfection than the Greddy one.
