Default Turbo install help

Im about to install my custom kit on my 02 civic and I was wondering if anyone used anything when boting up the turbo to mani,down pipe to turbo,WG to mani, or dump tube to WG?I have seen some people use copper spray but has anyone used a gasket or anything?

you should use gaskets if you can get them. If your sure that the flanges are perfectly straight then you might be ok.

I always use a gasket, unless the surfaces are perfect and will seal each other. But I usually just put a gasket in there to be safe.
