ive been running td04 for about 3 months now and im using a speedvision manifold, when i first fitted it i didnt bother replacing the gasket because it looked ok and it was blowing quite bad so i bought a new manifold to engine block gasket from toyota and its still the same and its getting worse. im going to take the manifold off and see if i can get it skimmed because i recon it must be wharped a bit and not getting a good seal. when i put it back on is it advisable to use i high temp gasket sealant on either side of the gasket before i fit it or is this a bad idea? any help would be good. thanks

Does it have any warranty? WEPR offer lifetime guarantee?

i think you would be wrong there buddy its a 1 year guarantee wepr offer.

to answer your question check the head surface for any obstruction specially around the area where its blowing then if you cannot find anything i would get it skimmed

yes i think ill just get it skimmed and hopefully it sorts it. can i use high temp gasket sealant when i put it back with a new gasket?

if the mani flange is flat, both faces are clean and you use a new toyota gasket then you wont need any spunk on it.
