Fitment Information: This gasket fits 2002 - 2014 Subaru WRX, 2004 - 2021 Subaru STI, 2005 - 2009 Subaru Legacy GT, 2005 - 2009 Subaru Outback XT, and 2004 - 2008 Subaru Forester XT. Features: Good news for 3 - bolt up - pipe owners! You now have an excellent replacement gasket. The GrimmSpeed 3 - Bolt Manifold to Up Pipe Gasket is made of durable multi - layer stainless steel. It's 22% thicker than the OEM gasket, ensuring an optimal exhaust seal. After testing countless aftermarket gaskets, GrimmSpeed found that multi - layer steel OEM style gaskets work best. Many exhaust gaskets, even multi - layer ones, aren't fully made of stainless steel, which causes leaks. But GrimmSpeed offers a premium multi - layer steel gasket with a 304 stainless - steel fire ring at a great price. It's for 3 - bolt up - pipe models only, sold individually.

Using this GrimmSpeed 3 - Bolt Manifold to Up Pipe Gasket is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is turned off and has cooled down. Remove the old gasket from your 3 - bolt up - pipe. Then, carefully place the new GrimmSpeed gasket in its position. Ensure it's properly aligned before tightening the bolts. When tightening, do it gradually and evenly to avoid any uneven pressure that could lead to leaks. As for maintenance, there isn't much you need to do. Just keep an eye on it during regular vehicle check - ups. If you notice any signs of wear or leakage, it might be time to replace it. Also, remember this gasket is only for 3 - bolt up - pipe models, so don't try to use it on other types of pipes.
