Default turbo gasket

i just wondering do any of yours guys use a gasket between the turbo and manifold. my friend he is a dodge boy and said he uses grease and the grease heats up it will build up carbon and become a great sealant.

I always recommend gaskets, even though right now I dont have one on the ls/vtec t3/t4 turbo.. heh,

They will slightly leak if they are not perfectly true,

I have heard of the grease trick, but never tried it myself.
