trials930 Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) I just bought a 27 mm ti header pipe from sandifords for my 06 4rt, it did not come with a sleeve gasket to the mid pipe joint, where or what is the proper gasket available from?

barfy Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 i just removed my standard pipe and slid in my Mitani pipe using the original gaskets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj65 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Some Mitani header pipes will just slide in the original silencer gasket collar without any issue, as the diameter of the pipe going into the silencer is the same as the original, but some (the later ones) have the weld for the sleeved down part too close the the end, going into the silencer, so you can either use a dremel to reduce the length of the gasket in the silencer, or buy a new one and cut it down.

trials930 Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Thanks for the replies, but my pipe is 27mm all the way to the back edge, stock is about 23.4mm, I will need a 27mm I.d. gasket , as a tempory solution, I machined an aluminum sleeve 27.2 mm I.d. by 31.2 mm o.d. by 31 mm long, and sealed with high temp rtv, surely, Mitani must have made something to be able to mount their pipe to a stock midpipe.
