Exhaust leak

Hey guys, just got my tsudo catback all zipped up...after a day or so the connection between the stock dp and the tsudo catback piece created an exhaust leak...When its cold you can see the exhaust leaking from this location, also created a farty sputtering sound which sounds terrible. The bolts are tight and the gasket is in there...what would I need to do to seal the leak?? Thanks for info

Did you reuse the gasket or put in a new one?

Pick up a Remflex 2-bolt flange gasket.

Best move I made on my car.

I always had a leak there with my aftermarket setups.

Remflex is the way to go, finally put mine on. Blackdew I'm not sure what exhaust/dp setup you have but what I did was get under my car and measured the bolt spacing on them and then ordered the right gasket
