Am fitting my new t25 next week, dont reckon the old gaskets will be any good, so ill need a new gasket for turbo/manifold. And turbo/elbow. Or can you go without the gaskets? and what gasket will i need as using standard elbow.

secondly, is the only place to buy them k-tec/cgb, or will unipart/gsf/mpd etc have them. from k-tec are £10 each plus the vat and postage

I personally have never used a gasket, just made sure both faces are clean and level. Personal preference I know people who insist that fitting a gasket is the right choice.

No gaskets fitted/needed on the joins, unless the faces are bowed like a banana.
