Default Invidia G200 Install

I am working on installing the G200 with a magnaflow X-Pipe. I have the stock stuff off from the cat-back, and am stuck on the part of installing the new pipes.

The G200 piping is 2" compared to 2.25" of the stock pipes. This causes a problem with the gaskets. I went down to Kragen and they said they don't carry the gaskets I need .

Was this guy trippin or is there another place I should get them from? I am going to call some local exhaust shops now to see if they have any.

Do I even need the gaskets or is there something else I should be using in their place?

Allright, scratch that. The b@stards at the parts store didn't know what they were talkin about. Nobody is able to find a 2" 2 bolt exhaust gasket. I talked to a muffler shop who said they might get some in in a couple weeks

The invidia website doesn't have just the gaskets listed as a part number. Anyone have any idea on how I can get some gaskets? I need help!

The stock gaskets (behind the cat) work just fine. I reused mine, actually reused it twice, since I put on my Hi Flows at a different time than my Invidia. No Problems. The rest of the gaskets should have come with the system.

I got the system used from another member here. I called invidia and they are shipping me the ones which they include with the kit free of charge. I put it in right now with some of the stock ones and some used ones from a shop. When I get the invidia ones in I'm going to take it into a shop to get everything put in right.

Allrighty, I need some help again. I called the company and they won't sell just just the gaskets. Sounds to me like that don't know what they are doing. Regardless, I need some help tracking down 4 2inch 2bolt gaskets to finish this install. I have talked to exhaust shops around the area and they would rather cut their arm off then look for one.

Does anyone know where I can find some of these flippin gaskets or another method to install these pipes correctly?

Would this stuff work in place of the gaskets?
