hey guys am trying to track down the metal flange gasket for the turbo downpipe from a TC06 with the 3 bolt flange (ie JA/JB Starion, FWD Sigma Turbo, AA/AB Cordia Turbo).

I was supplied an ACL LA133 but it is too small, it is the right shape but just shrunken about 10-20% - looks to be for a TC05 perhaps?

A permaseal gasket part number would be cool too if someone has it on hand.

Cheers!

*edit* I just tried the LA133 against two TC05s I have and even then the gasket is still too small, perhaps the gasket is even for a TC04? But it's definitely listed in the ACL NZ catalog for the 1.8L Turbo Cordia and Turbo Starions.

VL commodore turbo dump pipe to exhaust system 3 bolt gasket is the perfect size, only thing you have to do is cut a flat on the bottom to miss the wastegate cover plate on the starion turbo.

thank you I'll do some digging into the VL Turbo gasket first thing tomorrow morning!

same goes for dump pipe flanges, VL turbo ;)

Managed to the get the right one, the ACL part number is LA200 if anyone needs to get one in future.

even easier.... over the weekend i brought some sheet metal exhuast gasket paper for 10 bucks.... just use tin snips to get your pattern and todo so just cut out a piece small enough to get down there and use a small mallet to indent the shape you want.

done the silly wastegate plate as well

I done this cause nowhere had a listing for it, and I have a tc06 instead of tc05

yeah ironically the only listing for that flange gasket was in the permaseal catalog, and it crossed over to an ACL part number.

The gasket cost ~$6 so didn't deem it worth the hassle to cut my own one :P
