External wastegate gasket.

Hi guys, just wondering if you are able to supply gaskets for 38mm Tial wastegates? (Cardboard type ones)
Cheers

You can't use a 'Cardboard' gasket on the exhaust!

If TD can't supply them you should be able to find some gaskets on Ebay easily enough.

Haha well i think you know what i mean... The gasket between the manifold and wastegate, its not metal but some type of fibreous material

Is that between mani and wastegate? Sorry I got it wrong in my haste, its a turbosmart wastegate (came with wepr power up kit) i think and the gasket between the mani and wastegate itself is made of what looks like bluey hard cardboard/wood haha. I guess to prevent heat transfrer, would a metal one be fine? Cheers Nick!

the metal ones are much better mate, the organic cardboard or when every they are split and crack so you an only use them once
