Fitment: This gasket fits 2002 - 2014 Subaru WRX, 2004 - 2021 Subaru STI, 2005 - 2009 Subaru Legacy GT, 2005 - 2009 Subaru Outback XT, and 2004 - 2013 Subaru Forester XT. It's the must - have gasket for your downpipe installation. GrimmSpeed has tested countless aftermarket gaskets, and found that multi - layer steel OEM style gaskets work best. Most exhaust gaskets, even multi - layer ones, aren't fully made of stainless steel, which causes leaks. But GrimmSpeed offers a premium solution: a multi - layer steel gasket with a 304 stainless steel fire - ring at an affordable price. Features include its location as a turbo to downpipe gasket, a durable 7 - layer multi - layer steel construction, being 22% thicker than the OEM gasket, cross - referencing with Subaru part #144022AA180, and being sold individually.
Using this GrimmSpeed turbo to downpipe gasket is easy. First, make sure your car's engine is cool. Then, remove the old gasket from the turbo to downpipe area. Clean the surfaces where the gasket will sit to ensure a good seal. Place the new gasket in the right position and install it carefully. When tightening the bolts, do it evenly to avoid any leaks. As for maintenance, there's not much you need to do. Just keep an eye on it during your regular car check - ups. If you notice any signs of wear or leaks, it's time to replace the gasket. Also, remember that this gasket is sold individually, so if you need more than one, make sure to order accordingly.
