Small Leak, need advice.

Hello everyone,

Recently I bought a JDL front Pipe and flat Grimmspeed Gaskets my issue is at the rear of the front pipe. When I bolt everything on my exhaust (Invidia R400) there's a small exhaust leak due to JDL's rear flange is a flat surface while the R400's is a doughnut.

Any ideas on how to fix this small exhaust leak?

Thanks!

JDL has the option of a donut style rear flange for their fp.

Either buy the correct flanged front pipe or modify the exhaust or front pipe to have the correct flange.

See a doctor. It could be a prostrate issue.






Actually Swolf pretty much summed it up.
