Donut Gasket Leak... WTF!?!
Hey guys!
My friend and I installed PLM headers and Invidia test pipes on our cars this evening... Install went very smooth, took us about 2-2.5 hours to get both cars complete... All new oem gaskets and yet we both have leaks at the donut gasket.. We're still using the stock spring bolts and because of the design its impossible to over tighten them.
Where did we go wrong? Why's it leaking? Am I missing something.... It sounds like shit =(
On a good note, the gains are nice and the header is very nice quality. The port matching to the head flange was perfect, highly recommended assuming we figure out why its leaking.
Thanks in advance!
