Turbo exit gasket orientation?

[jacobsen]

The Walker brand turbo exhaust gasket did not seem to seal the exhaust to the high-flow cat. I bought a new one which is a Fel-Pro made in USA hoping that will fix the problem. But there is a slight difference in the gasket on either side. I don't know which way to install it or if it matters?

Doesnt matter, either way is the same as long as its crushed. I used felpros aswell for mine, seem to work very well so far.

Thanks that's what I thought. I ended up installing it in the way I thought it might be best. I would like to point out that the Walker brand exhaust gasket I used was a total piece of shit. It had a dull ceramic or a clay colored coating on the gasket structure itself. As soon as I tightened the gasket down that crappie coating cracked apart and caused an immediate leak of the exhaust between the turbo in a catalytic converter. As you can see the new gasket is a Fel-Pro and it worked very well and fixed the leak. It has a shiny metallic coating on it, I'm not sure what the material is. But it's different than the Walker gasket and just by comparison it looks like a better unit. https://youtu.be/G53GUqKPkRM
