I wasn't saying that adding the H pipe would "fix" all his problem or problems. I just know for a fact that the Injen exhaust has a very odd and noticeable sound at idle that most exhaust systems don't have. So at the very least if he doesn't like the sound of his exhaust at idle this maybe at least a part of his problem. Some people live with it, some don't. As I mentioned, if you do a search on them you'll see several people opted to add it to their system.

Here is the actual factory exhaust manifold gasket for the 350z... these can be re-used and are extreemly hard to destroy...



Hi Jason; I also need the two metal gaskets between header/cat since mine seem to leak.
I found this on the web. But it looks like it's "paper" not "metal".

I dont think its a leak, but not like it matters. If its a bubbling sound.. you should listen to this video on this forum by a vendor w/ the HKS Ti exhaust installed....it has that bubbling sound of extra gasline burning up in ur exhaust pipes. It would sound like an exhaust leak if u've never heard it. Just listen to it first and then make sure.

Jason; sorry. I think I orderd wrong gaskets. I need the ones between the cat outlets and y pipe (or H pipe) inlets. Like in this pics ( I know this link is from different vendor):
http://rep.speedycarparts.com/parts/...ory=H&dp=false

The link the you send me (which I ordered) is the gaskets between header outlets and cat inlets.

Thanks, Jason. I just ordered the correct ones.

Can I just return the first order back to you via UPS? (i.e not excepting it)

you can do that...

or just deny the package when they deliver it and they will send it back to us... we will refund the full price of the gaskets but not shipping...

on the UPS tag it will show your order number at the bottom, so you know which one to refuse delievery of...
