ZZP header... win and loss

I love and hate my ZZP header. I love the gains from it, and it sounds pretty sick. HOWEVER...

The stupid header to DP flange always leaks! I am on my 2nd gasket and its leaking again. FML.

Does anyone know where I can order a good gasket that will last more than 100 miles before it fails again? I love this setup and my flexpipe hasnt snapped off yet (knock on wood), I just need to fix the damn leak.

Thanks in advance!

PM it to me then.

I would get it welded but you would think the thing would make a decent seal before they let these things go out on the market.
