Which gasket? If it's the turbine inlet gasket it's probably the same as any other T3

Re: Garrett T3 .52/.48
 

the gasket inbetween the turbo and the adapter plate.

^ i looked all over that site and found nada. i tried to email em too, to see if they have anything. i tried yesterday to just cut one out of gasket material (it was high heat gasket material) but i had nothin to cut it with but an exacto knife, and it wasnt workin too well.

Try scissors

Re: Garrett T3 .52/.48
 

^ yea im tryin that too, then i tried to tape the gasket to the adapter plate as i drilled the holes for the bolts in the gasket but im not gettin the holes in the gasket big enough because i dont wanna mess up the adapter plate. i gotta find a way to hold the gasket material tight while i can drill some bigger holes in it.

broke a pair of scissors by the way, but still got the basic outline cut: ill post pics in a minute.

cuttin em out with scissors reminded me of how much i suck at cutting. but they should still be able to serve their purpose.

ok so even now with my T3 to adapter plate gasket, i am still having some trouble boltin the turbo up to the adapter plate without having any gaps at all bewteen the 2 even with the gasket. has anyone ever faced this problem? is there just something i can use to fill whatever very small cracks there are inbetween the turbo, gasket, and adapter plate?

here is a pic:

As long as you bolt it on tight it will seal just fine.
