AA Downpipe

Decided to go with the AA downpipe (Catted version). Can the oem gasket be used or is it necessary to purchase another one ?

My oem gasket was reused - I'm sure at some point a new one is advised but in that my car only had 700 miles on it when the DP was installed it was a non-issue.

Assuming you are relatively low mileage as well so you'll likely be just fine

Just my 2-cents :-)

Just installed the catted AA downpipe. Startup definitely sounds nice. Waiting to see how it pairs with my new exhaust. Cheers mate
