Pretty stupid question, but getting new exhaust put on (from downpipe back, full magnex and decat system going on) and wondering where, if any, there are any gaskets along the pipe?? Don't want to start and have to leave it as a half job waiting for gaskets!!

If so, where can I get these separately as I don't want to fork out for a full gasket set (head, exhaust mani, rocker)?

all u need so long as your not touching manifold and downpipe is one either side of the decat/cat and some paste to seal the sleeved joints over the torsion bar at the rear

or can just use silicone for the lot ;-)

The normal gaskets are shit anyway. I've used high temp silicone and Firegum from Halfords loads and they are all good, though the flanges are often an issue themselves.

Cheers guys, thought they mite be hiding either end of the cat. Looks like the exhaust silicone seal mite be coming out in full force then!!

From the look of it, seems to be what the previous owner had in mind lol
