Title: Aftermarket Exhaust Fitting
Post by: Peasy on 09 April 2015, 02:31:05 pm

Hi all,

I now have an aftermarket can and link pipe from Fuel to fit to my Gen 1 in preparation for Ivanising.

My question is, do aftermarket link pipes not require the gasket for fitting as the fit seems to be tighter than the standard one?

Thanks
Lewis

No they do not use a gasket normally.


Most aftermarket link pipes just slide on and are held in place with either springs or clamps.


If you find you have a bit of a leak, grey soot around joint or excessive popping on closed throttle, you can use some clear silicon sealant. You can use the high temp stuff if you want or bathroom stuff works just as well.
