Turbo to manifold gasket recommendations?

[minty]

As title. Can anyone recommend a good quality t28 turbo to manifold gasket or is it just best to stay with oem gaskets?

Cheers

The OEM gasket is as good as any aftermarket..

Thats what i thought. Any recommendations for the best place for them as they must be cheaper than going direct to nissan. My local branch dont even know what an s15 is:what:

Anyone welded theirs?

Yep welded all the way! DO so many drift days and thats always the thing that ruins my day even when using aero nuts and locking colar it works lose and the gasket ****s its self!

Now people will moan about what if the manifold cracks or turbo dies.... easy.. if it cracks you have to take it of anyway to re-weld it and if turbo brakes.. how much is a aftermarket manifold for an SR these days.. like £40?? considering you would of saved so much time and money changing gasket anyway....

Yeah sounds like the way forward

why not just put a weld on the bolts that way if ya ever had to change either the mani or turbo ya could just craic the weld on the bolts ?

Just get some better nuts like oval lock nuts and use loctite or equivalent...
