I have a turboxs downpipe and testpipe I plan to install soon, but want to avoid any leaks. For those wondering, yes I have upgraded HPFP internals. My car (2009 gen 1) has 155k miles on it, with I believe the original downpipe gasket and exhaust gaskets. When I bought the DP, the guy threw in an OEM used DP gasket, “in case I needed it.” It looks used but still fine.
1: So, do I need to replace my downpipe gasket when installing my new pipe or should I be fine using one of the two used ones I have?
2: Can I also get away with reusing my donut gaskets for the testpipe?
3: I need a tune to use the downpipe. I plan on freektune’s OTS plus map. I need to bolt everything on and wait for the map before starting the car, correct? Reason I ask is I want to make sure everything I installed is not leaking and not waste the tuners time or my money.
TIA everyone!
