Go to the parts store and buy Permatex Ultra Copper. It's about $6.99 at AutoZone or Oreillys. Use that instead of gaskets. It's a high temp copper gasket sealer. I have it on my DC headers and Apexi Ws1 catback. No leaks. Get both sides of the metal and connect. Let it dry for about an hour and then start your car. This can be used on 5 6thgens or more.

^ its like glue that dries that forms a gasket lol, it'd probably be nice if you could scrape the old gasket off

This is what I used after blowing out my gasket. It wont last forever but it will outlast those cheap megan gaskets.
